Overview
The author of Knitting Without Needles turns her attention to weaving, the hottest trend in craft, with 30 equally ingenious and beautiful projects for bracelets, scarfs, baskets, lanyards, textiles, and more. The projects can be woven on looms that are bought (a small inexpensive lap loom), found (a hula hoop or tree branch), or not necessary at all, making this book an exciting introduction to fiber arts. Modern weaving projects like you've never seen-within easy reach of anyone. Weaving is a satisfying hobby for making home or clothing accessories that look plucked from your favorite stores. Here are Pinterest-worthy projects for creating earrings, clutches, pillows, wall hangings, and more, all organized by skill level. From complete beginner to intermediate, Weaving Within Reach allows you to craft at your comfort level, even if you don't yet know the difference between the warp and the weft. Lacking a loom? Most of the materials can be woven on found objects-such as an embroidery hoop or cardboard box-or achieved with a simple over-under pattern using no loom at all. As you progress, there are plenty of exciting designs for a frame loom to keep you inspired. With a detailed introduction, stunning lifestyle and step-by-step photographs, and a helpful resource section, Weaving Within Reach unravels the possibilities of the beautiful things you can make with your hands.
