Introducing 200 Variations of Handwoven Patterns You Can Create on a Small Loom
Even with small looms that can be used on a tabletop—such as “Mini Weaving” or “Sakiori”—you can weave a wide variety of patterns. This book features 200 different coaster-sized (approx. 13 cm square) motifs, along with numerous variations using different colors and types of yarn. Why not choose a pattern you like or want to try from the samples—all made using only extra-thick, medium, and medium-fine cotton yarn—and start by weaving it in coaster size?
Since coaster-sized pieces weave up quickly and easily, start by using the yarn you already have to see how the patterns turn out and check the size. Of course, you can use the coaster-sized pieces as they are, or you can sew several motifs together to create a larger piece. You can also weave while joining the warp threads to create a larger piece, or incorporate a pattern into part of a larger project…
This book explains how to set up the warp for “Mini Weaving” and “Sakiori,” as well as basic weaving techniques. It includes detailed, illustrated instructions—such as how to read weaving charts for each motif, how to weave while joining warp threads, and how to finish the fringes—so even beginners can get started right away.
When used in conjunction with the previously published *The Complete Guide to Hand Weaving*, this book will further expand your world of hand weaving.
