This book is a sister book to "Warp&Weft" and is a textbook that provides detailed instructions on how to plan and practice hand weaving in the Swedish method. It covers everything you need to know to plan and prepare for weaving, including counterbalance and countermarch looms, related weaving tools, calculations for warping, threading, treadle knotting, and basic weaving skills. Clear and detailed diagrams on almost every page show specialized tasks such as loom dressing, weaving, and correcting mistakes. In the second half, more than 30 finishing techniques are explained in detail, including hemming, edging, fringing, and braiding methods. The illustrated and easy-to-understand explanations make this a must-have guide for anyone with a Swedish loom. Most of these methods can be easily used on any loom, so this book teaches essential techniques for weavers of all levels.
