DESCRIPTION:
T. A. Husarik said Good for the library, but not for getting started. I read the reviews before buying this book, so I expected it to be a little over my head (I am brand new to weaving and have bought several "getting started" books.)Indeed, it is way over my head. It not only doesn't show (as others have said) basic tie ups, etc, but some of the terminology is different than what I've seen in the "getting started" books.However, having said that, I am going to keep this book, not . The best. This is my third copy in 20 years The best. This is my third copy in 20 years. The other two are sitting here; dog-eared, lose pages, and spines covered with tape. It is absolutely my 'go to' book when needing either technical help or inspiration. Glad that it was still available.. Language is often technical and assumes a great knowledge base in the reader Old mill weaves from America's weaving industry! Language is often technical and assumes a great knowledge base in the reader. Good old book.
