Welcome to Weaving: The Modern Guide

Description

Designed for modern makers looking for a book that will continue to inspire them as their skill grows. Lindsey Campbell, the weaver behind the popular blog and brand HelloHydrangea, teaches more than 50 techniques plus 20 stylish projects for weavers of all skill levels. With 700 detailed photos, Campbell offers just the right blend of learning, encouragement, and great weaving results. An easy tutorial helps you to make your own loom that can be used to complete each project. Learn basic terms and skills for beginner weavers, such as warp and weft, and how to keep your sides straight. Sections on intermediate and advanced techniques and concepts, such as gradients, patterns, and how to add embellishments, give you room to grow your skills. Weave more than 20 projects meant to inspire ongoing creativity, from simple practice tapestries to intricate, usable woven projects like a zippered pouch and (yes) a woven chandelier. All of the techniques and weavings can be completed on the loom introduced at the beginning of the book. AUTHOR: Lindsey Campbell is the artist behind HelloHydrangea.
