First sentence: Imagine that everything woven suddenly disappeared from your life. You would be without clothes, rugs, upholstered furniture, tablecloths, and blankets, as well as towels and handkerchiefs-all things most people take for granted around the house. After you learn to weave, you will be able to make many of these things. You can even make large rugs or bedspreads by sewing small woven squares together.
Description: Introduces the basic techniques and materials of weaving without a loom, including instructions for making weaving frames and for weaving many projects. Includes information on the history of weaving.
