I needed this book for a class. It came to me quickly and in great shape. Saved a bundle compared to brand new.
Very Good First Reference Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This book is not a "How To", except for perhaps the floor loom sampler. I agree with the comment that the history is the best part, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also enjoyed the explanations of fibers and yarns. It reads like a college text and has been used as a college text. This book is very good for a broad introduction to weaving and some other related fiber arts.
An excellent college textbook
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book is the standard college textbook at the two universities where I studied weaving, and includes historical information, practical instruction, and design information. The practical instruction assumes you have a floor loom. Recommended.
