Written by Åsa Pärson and Amica Sundström
The Weaving Handbook is a practical and down-to-earth handbook for all

guidebook. This book is for the novice

in-depth discussions of techniques and materials, review of cloth textures and
types, and explanations of weaving methods and levels of quality.
Weavers can try out sample projects ranging from the elegantly simple to the
increasingly complex, covering a wide range of weaving techniques. The reader can understand the principles behind the arrangement and preparation
of the loom and learn about weaving tools of all shapes and sizes, and how to
use them. Discover the differences between various fibers and fabric types, and their
looks, feels, and visual effects.
