Creative Cloth on a Rigid Heddle Loom

Jane Patrick

Description

The Weaver's Idea Book presents a wide variety of patterns for the simple rigid-heddle loom, accompanied by harness drafts for multishaft looms. The techniques include leno, Brooks bouquet, soumak and embroidery on fabric. Each chapter contains weaving patterns along with swatches illustrating the techniques, accompanied by step-by-step photography.

The book is arranged by structure or type of weave, from variations on plain weave to doubleweave with traditional patterns from around the world, bands and fabrics woven on two double heddles. Weaving tips and tricks help weavers at all levels achieve their textile dreams.

Includes project ideas that guide you through creating functional woven projects, from wearables to home décor.
