Puncetto Books Arrived
Posted by Avital Pinnick on March 18, 2011
The books that I ordered on Puncetto Valsesiano (basic and coloured Puncetto) have arrived! I will try to post reviews.
I’m also working on a spreadsheet of Italian words with English translations that may help you if you own these books. I just need to track down a couple more terms and read them through a few times. No, I don’t read Italian, but I can read French and Latin and Italian is not a difficult language. The Google translation site is a very useful resource!

How can I order this book ? I am so intrigued by the beautiful works. Does it have good illustration and thread paths?

Yes, the illustrations are clear. I’ve also posted a list of Italian terms, which you may find useful: https://apinnick.wordpress.com/2011/03/22/puncetto-italianenglish-glossary/
Elena (the bookseller) provides excellent service!

I try to get into the address you provided and only get advertisements, I would love to by this book, someone from The Needle lace website said maybe the shop has closed down. Is ther any other way I can purchase this book.

Sorry, but Elana has gone out of business, so that web site no longer works. Your best bet is to try eBay. She is selling her old stock there. Good luck!
