Tapestry Weaving: A Comprehensive Study Guide Nancy Ashbrook Harvey

Excellent How-To on Handweaving This tutorial covers different types of looms (with photographs), selection of warp and weft yarns, design options for tapestries.

It is ideal for beginners--many detailed, close-up drawings show how the weft yarns have to be placed around the warp yarns in order to create shapes and patterns. For anyone who wants to try out weaving without investing in an expensive loom, the book provides instruction for a simple frame loom, as well as projects to weave on it. Many hints throughout the book help readers improve their technique and understanding of the weaving process. Exceptional.
