Handwoven gets a makeover!
The tools for weaving are objects of art in satin-finished hardwoods and gleaming stainless steel. Using them is like playing an instrument, doing a dance, or practicing Tai Chi. Even better, the tools for weaving make great cloth. This issue of Handwoven explores our wonderful array of warping and weaving tools with special tips on how to use them. You'll find a directory of looms, shuttles, and more! The issue's projects are all items you can use in your studio: shuttle holders, loom baskets, bench seats, pillows, a nap blanket, curtains, and samplers. The projects are also designed to show the advantages of different types of tools (countermarch vs jack loom, floor vs table loom, sectional vs plain beam, end-feed vs boat shuttle, warping board vs reel). The Yarn of the Hour? Linen!
