AWOL Book

My book on drawing Celtic knotwork by Aidan Meehan seems to have wandered off. (I have several books by him, but the main one on the method he developed is missing.) I keep my knotwork books on a specific shelf, and that book is missing. Even more frustrating, I can't find an image of the cover that I remember on the web... which will make finding a replacement difficult, should it not turn up. I think the cover colour is mainly a creamy yellow. I'm pretty sure it's one by Aidan Meehan, not by George Bain.

I can't remember the last time I saw the book. (Did I loan it to a friend before leaving Chapel Hill? I'm pretty sure I had it when I was down there. Did I loan it to a friend up here? Is it still around somewhere, hiding?)

If you ever lived near me, and have an interest in knotwork, could you check to see if you have my book? (Even if you don't remember borrowing it?) Thanks! I really appreciate it!

Update: I found a link on the web! It's by Iain Bain, which is why I couldn't find it by googling! Amazon link.

I didn't borrow the book from you but I did see it in your office last term. Maybe check there? Or you could have lent it to someone on campus....

Thanks!!! I'll have a look there tomorrow. (Strange... I have no recollection of taking it in to the office. Perhaps I was thinking of working on a painting design during slow periods...)

Curses... it's not in my office. *sigh*
