Description
An essential handbook to the tabletop loom provides step-by-step photographs to outline innovative techniques that can be applied to a range of contemporary projects, from pillows and curtains to bags and jewelry. Original.

Rigid-heddle weaving is simple to learn, is easy to master, and offers a lifetime of possibilities to discover! Weaving Large on a Little Loom covers everything rigid-heddle weavers need to know about the craft, from the basics — how to select a loom, how to set it up, and how to get started — to a wide variety of fun techniques that yield beautiful results. Begin by exploring a variety of weave structures, including finger-manipulated laces, tapestry, and color play with stripes, plaids, and multicolor yarns. Then move on to more complex designs and irresistible projects, from pillows and curtains to bags, shawls, and even jewelry. Explore warp-face patterning, weft-pile weaving, weaving with fine threads, woven shibori, shadow weave, and the textural effects you can create with different yarns and with wire and conductive thread. Everything you need to know is here, with fully illustrated step-by-step instructions to ensure success.
This essential handbook unlocks the little tabletop loom's full potential with step-by-step photographs, innovative techniques, and contemporary projects.
