Description for A Weaver's Book of 8-Shaft Patterns: From the Friends of Handwoven
Paperback. Are you an 8-shaft weaver pressed for time? Or a 4-shaft weaver with more shafts on your loom gathering dust? Num Pages: 240 pages, b&w photos and illus. BIC Classification: WFG. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 286 x 222 x 11. Weight in Grams: 794.
The result is more than 25 different types of threadings explored and nearly 900 fabric samples with their drafts. Well-known weaves such as twill and twill-based, tied unit, and lace weaves are included, as well as less common ones such as diversified plain weave and pique. If you're new to multishaft weaving, you'll find a whole new world of possibilities; if you're a seasoned weaver, you'll see new "what ifs" to explore on every page. You can skip through the book, picking and choosing drafts to try, or dig into a single weave and explore it in depth.
