5.0 out of 5 stars
A 'must have' weaving learning tool!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Learning to Weave, Revised Edition (Hardcover)
Deborah Chandler's book is the next best thing to attending an excellent
weaving class in person. Then after you learn to weave, it is a reference book
that can aid you for years to come. Even after weaving for more than
10 years, I often turn to this book. It has plain detailed instruction
with wonderful illustrations. Photos and drawings as well as the fabulous
explanations guide you right along.
Whether you are just learning to weave or want to add to your weaving library,
I strongly recommend this book!

A Must!,
By A. Borovkoff (San Francisco, Ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Learning to Weave, Revised Edition (Hardcover)
Forget all the other books on weaving. This is the one. Anyone who has problems warping their loom, designing patterns, learning new patterns will wear the pages of this book thin with reading and rereading and rereading and more rereading. There is barely a day that goes by that I do not in some way refer back to this fantastic book! All we ask is that the writer give us more! Bravo!
