No. 83, 2006 If you have ever considered taking up weaving but have no place to keep a loom, then this is the perfect book for you. With eleven projects, each covering a different hand weaving technique, there are plenty of ideas to get you started; along the way you also learn how to combine colours and textures. The materials you will need are quite basic and a lot of them you will have around the house such as scissors, forks, crochet hooks and pliers. Once you have all the yarns and equipment you need, you can begin making your own belts, shawls, berets and more. With step-by-step instructions and colour photographs, it is a very easy-to-follow guide. Textile Fibre Forum (Australia)
