Description: Looms come in many shapes and sizes, but the rigid heddle loom is the simplest and most versatile of all. For the beginner who needs to concentrate on weaving patterns without the problem of operating complicated apparatus, it is the ideal starting point. Now, thanks to this book, the rigid heddle loom can also be the tool of the more advanced weaver. After years of teaching and experimenting with weaving, Anne Field has devised patterns that have previously been limited to weavers using large and expensive four shaft looms. Many of these patterns are outlines here. There are instructions for more that thirty techniques, from the simplest plain weaves to richly-varied patterns which invite the eye and are a pleasure to weave: checks, plaids, tapestry, Spanish Lace, soumak .. these are only a few examples. More than 150 photographs and drawings clearly illustrate the patterns ans skills involved. There are also 21 colour plates showing a variety of projects that may be copies by the reader or used as inspiration for original designs. For teachers and students, beginners and advanced weavers, this book is an essential guide to a fascinating craft.
