"In Simple Weave, Kerstin Neumuller's third craft book, a world of weaving opens beyond gigantic looms and inaccessible patterns. Kerstin demonstrates how you can weave with tools that are easy to make yourself and often small enough to fit into your pocket. Here lies inspiration for those who have never woven but are eager to try, as well as for experienced weavers interested in working with flexible and portable tools. Practical and beautiful keepsakes to make include ribbons, bracelets, pencil and laptop cases and wall ornaments. Neumuller also shares her journey from textiles to woodworking, offering instructions for how to make your own pocket-sized weaving tools. The book is divided into three accessible chapters: Basic weaving theory; A wide range of achievable weaving projects from a 5 mm wide band to a 40 cm wide tea towel; Making your own tools. This section includes descriptions of how to carve a heddle and make a backstrap loom among various other usual tools. Enjoy the mindfulness and rhythm of this traditional craft and create bespoke, contemporary pieces to fit your own style." -- PUBLISHERLexicon
