內容簡介

內容簡介 Explore clasped weft weaving with legendary instructor Tom Knisely! The clasped weft technique brings together two or more weft threads from opposite directions to create unique patterns and textures. This technique, while simple, opens up vast creative possibilities and can be used on various looms, from rigid heddle to multi-shaft systems. The beauty of clasped weft lies in its versatility, as it can be woven into a wide range of projects, including towels, rugs, scarves, and table runners, allowing weavers to add intricate designs and textures to their pieces. The book is structured around 30+ projects that demonstrate the possibilities of clasped weft, with step-by-step instructions and design insights. These projects range from towels like the Goose Eye Twill Towel and Hydrangea Twill Towel to rugs like the Inclines Rug and Volcano Rug, all of which serve as creative inspiration. The author encourages readers to experiment with different materials, colors, and designs, making each project their own. In addition to the projects, the book provides invaluable insights into the technical aspects of clasped weft weaving, including tips on loom selection, shuttle types, and tools like thread stands and temples. The author emphasizes the importance of sampling and understanding the nuances of warp and weft tension, ensuring that weavers can achieve a balanced and beautiful final product. With its clear instructions and creative guidance, this book empowers weavers of all levels to explore clasped weft and create stunning woven pieces that reflect both tradition and innovation.
