The Art of Weaving

by Else Regensteiner

Else Regensteiner, "the first lady of weaving," according to Booklist, presents this handbook for weavers-beginners or expert.
Essential information about looms, yarns, warping a loom, drafting, basic weaves and pattern weaves are included. Many
different weave structures are covered: double weaves; tapestry techniques; knotted, pile and flat-woven rugs; and two-and
three-dimensional wall hangings. With her clearly written text, 29 color and 380 black and white illustrations of the steps, works
in progress, and finished results, Mrs. Regensteiner not only teaches the techniques of weaving, but also stimulates creative
expression.
