NEW IN PAPERBACK
'Learning to Weave' is a four-shaft weaving course which makes learning to weave, with or without a teacher, easy and fun. The writing is friendly and straightforward; the illustrations and photographs are thorough and clear. All you need to know to weave with confidence is here: step-by-step warping (by three different methods), weaving technique, project planning, reading and designing drafts, the basics of most common weave structures, and lots of handy hints. Beginners will find this book an invaluable teacher; more seasoned weavers will find food for thought in the chapters on weave structures and drafting.
Besides teaching extensively through weaving guilds and schools, Deborah has been a weaving shop owner, a contributing editor to Handwoven magazine, a peace corps volunteer in Honduras, and an employee of Pueblo to People, a nonprofit organisation that imports and sells handcrafted goods from Central and South America. Deborah is a founding member of Weave a Real Peace (WARP), an organisation dedicated to building bridges between weavers in first and third world countries.
