Woven Textiles. A Designer's Guide
'Woven Textiles - A Designer's Guide' is a step by step guide to the weave process from learning to weave through to designing your own woven cloth according to personal concepts and themes and finally the finishing techniques that should be applied bringing the cloth to the glory it deserves. The book provides both practical and theoretical information on the subject providing a Troubleshooter guide for overcoming potential problems, as well as including helpful tips and advice throughout, on designing and working with ‘hard to handle’ yarns in a technical language that is both interesting and easy to understand.
The book pushes your learning through passionate explanations of designing and weaving exciting cloth, with two chapters including weave structures and patterns to explore. Beautiful photographs portray the weave process with images of cloth by contemporary weave designers, supporting the written explanations and providing food for thought on your own woven ideas.
The passion and enthusiasm coupled with the exciting approach to design is something this book can provide every weaver.
