TT848.W47Description
Lots of enjoyment can be had weaving on standard four-shaft looms, but the possibilities increase dramatically when you move into the realm of eight, twelve, or more shafts. 8, 12 ... 20 approaches the challenges and pleasures of multishaft weaving with freshness and clarity. 8, 12 ... 20 will take you step by step through designing and understanding weaving structures, and will help you develop confidence in your ability to make fabrics of stunning complexity and beauty. Basic concepts - designing profiles, and twill and unit tie-ups - provide the foundation for exploring unlimited threading and treadling options. Each concept is clearly explained, and fully illustrated with drafts, diagrams, and fabric photos. If you're thinking about a multi-shaft loom, or if you have one and need help in realizing its potential, this book will guide you toward practical and creative mastery of complex weaving.Lexicon
