Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. 28.95 The author presents multiple ways to adapt a flat, rectangular piece of hand-weaving with knitted pieces in order to create functional clothing. Most of the patterns do not require cutting of the hand-woven fabric. The styles presented here are a little dated but the techniques are valuable. library book read 6/29/2023 This book shows how to make your hand weaves (rigid heddle!) and turn them into attractive clothing by adding knit pieces and edges for the parts hand weaves don't do well. The patterns look very workable and there is lots of good advice for those who are unsure of themselves. The weaves and knits are kept very simple, with most of the visual impact coming from the use of interesting yarns. Exciting stuff! The gallery in the back of these patterns used with fancier weaves is really fun and shows the possibilities if you have a fancier loom than mine. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Weave-Knit-Wear dispels the myth that you need expensive equipment, a large space, or special threads to weave. The directions for all 30 projects, from the narrowest boa to a 55" wide serape, are tailored to the most basic equipment--the 20" wide rigid-heddle loom--making it affordable, portable, and intimate. Judith Shangold's designs turn what might seem to be the limitations of this loom into a strength. She pairs simple shapes that reflect the ease of current fashion, and require little cutting and sewing, with the long tradition of ethnic garments created from narrow strips of handwoven fabric. The book offers guidance on the basics of weaving and the minimal hand sewing and knitting techniques used, as well as primers on choosing yarns, designing warps, planning garments, finishing the fabric, making Weave-Knit-Wear a resource that aids in planning and constructing one-of-a-kind woven or woven-and-knit projects.
