This book may be mini in size, but in content it is sturdy. Learn simply how to create your own weaving work. Learn what weaving can be, for you personally. As a young art student, I looked at looms as an old persons hobby. Something done in the 1800s, while drowned in ones’ shawl. Then as my own mind was led into weaving, I discovered that you can mash it up with whatever art style you come from. For example, I remember working with weaving plastics and wools together, along with scraps of fabric and ribbon. So materialistically speaking, we don’t have to go with the norm. As for the colour palette and pattern, I have even worked with photographs of my own vegetable garden.
Learn all the basics, the increasing, decreasing, working on a variety of size and shape frames…..
