this book is a great intro to silk screening and advocates the use of my favorite contact paper method. I used it for inspiration the very first time I did silk screening and there are some very nice patterns in the back of the book.

A great introduction to screenprinting with minimal equipment! This book will give you the background you need to get started, as well as some basic project ideas and nifty templates. Experimenting is encouraged!

The more into printing I get, the more I appreciate this book. I especially like the Setacolor ink recipes.
