Detailed Description

By Asa Parson and Amica Sundstrom. The Weaving Handbook looks at weaving from a Scandinavian point of view. It covers

  • counterbalance and countermarch looms
  • weaving tools
  • fiber properties and the basics of yarn construction
  • how to warp a Scandinavian-style loom
  • how to design your own projects
  • 189 pattern drafts, from 3 to 16 harnesses
  • hand-manipulated techniques, knotting, and supplementary wefts
  • finishing techniques
  • 22 projects for mostly 4 harness looms, but some up to 10 harnesses

This book has a lot to offer to the weaver who isn't put off by an unfamiliar notation style for the pattern descriptions or the use of metric measurements. It has good diagrams of the warping process and weaving techniques, as well as lovely photos of the projects.
