Review: Tapestry Weaving by Kirsten Glasbrook - I was at the Knitting & Stitching Show in Harrogate November 2012 and paid a visit to the tapestry weaving stall, where I asked about getting a book about it, and they recommended this one as a good starter. After the introduction, the book is then divided into the following sections: Materials, which covers: Warp & weft, what they are Frame or Loom: From simple to really complex ones, and to start you don't need much Other weaving equipment: scissors, bobbins, tape measure, shed stick, paper, pencils, dowels, needles, etc etc. Mounting and Framing Equipment: blockboard, glue, sandpaper, hammer, nails, paints, apron, gloves etc etc Basic Techniques - covering: Making your own simple frame, winding warps, preparing weft yarns, Weaving the hem, knotting a soumak Weaving horizontal stripes and spots Pick and Pick, Hatching, Diagonal shapes and curves, vertical slits, shading Distorted weft, outling shapes Cutting the tapestry from the frame, other ways of finishing warp ends Samplers: Sun sampler, Peruvian birds, Cat & fishes, Simple landscape, the Cover design. Further Techniques covering: Warp & weft variations, Weaving from the side Curved and irregular edes Cushions Mounting and Framing How to mount and frame your tapestry Gallery Contains photos of some of the author's work to give you inspiration and a bit about them. It's not a hugely thick book, with just 96 pages, but it's packed full of simple instructions and lots of diagrams and photos to get you started, going step by step along the way. I'm getting my husband to make me a frame as a birthday present, the instructions are that clear. Overall an excellent beginner's book to get you started.
Review: Excellent Weaving Book - I found this book to be first class. Excellent easy instructions on techniques as a beginner. Excellent photographs. I went on a weeks weaving course in Italy with Lynne Curran but did not manage to remember all the techniques. This book helped me remember them, step by step and this book has been a constant reference for me. Brilliant. I highly recommend it.
