Don't Weave at Home Without it!

This is the very best book I have seen or used to learn to weave. It is extremely detail oriented and procedes in a step by step manner. I have been involved in spinning and weaving for 9 years and still refer back to it. Get it in a spiral bound ed if you can so you can lay it flat as you work.

The Best

This is absolutely the best weaving book for learning to weave, for solving problems, for learning how to design your own textiles. What you learn here you can apply to any loom, to any project.

This book is a must have!

I received an antique 4-harness loom for my birthday this year and along with that was given some videos by Deborah Chandler. The videos were excellent and got me on my way but I still needed a reference to give more specific info. So, I asked experienced weavers for their advice on a book or two to buy and to the person every one recommended this one as "the bible". I knew it'd be good since Deborah's videos are so good and indeed I wasn't disappointed. Throughout the book there are very clear detailed line drawings of equipment/tools and techniques with descriptions. In addition, there are black and white photos to further provide instruction and information. Everything you could need to get going with weaving is in here with step by step explanations and material needs. Formulas are clearly laid out as are patterns that you can use for twills and other weaves. This really is the bible for weaving. My products may not be too pretty just yet but I'm having a great time playing and learning the techniques.

Excellent Book!

As a new weaver, I found this book to be an incredible storehouse of good, reliable information. I read it cover to cover before I ever even laid eyes on my loom. Armed with that book, I felt completely prepared to start my first project the evening my loom arrived.

A New Weaver's Bible!

Absolutely the best "self-instruction" book I have ever used for any topic. I took weaving several months ago from an instructor, and then did not have time to pursue it for another several months. Deborah Chandler's book saved me. It is extremely well written and offers easy, step-by-step instructions. I highly recommend this book to the beginner or those in need of a weaving refresher course.
