The Bandweaver's Project Book

34 Stylish, Practical Designs + Clever Finishing Techniques

Heather Torgenrud

Description

These 34 Nordic-style projects use the simplest bandweaving technique – warp-faced tabby – but could easily be adapted for other techniques like pick-up or tablet weaving. It's a resource for all bandweavers, whether they work on an inkle loom, band heddle, tape loom, backstrap loom or tablets, and whether they weave simple tabby or intricate patterns.

You'll find a variety of projects with unique design details; full-page colour photos; diagrams; and clear, concise instructions for pieces including bracelets, tassels, carriers and pouches, hatbands and much more! The second part of the book brings you 16 finishing techniques with detailed diagrams.

Since this book is aimed at readers who already know how to weave bands, no basic weaving instructions are included. But there are two special tip sections on working with wool and estimating yardage requirements for warp and weft. In addition, an extensive project gallery shows you more ways you can use bandweaving to create your own unique woven designs.
