This review is from: Looms and Textiles of the Copts: First Millennium Egyptian Textiles in the Carl Austin Reitz Collection of the California Academy of Science (Memoirs of the California Academy of Sciences) (Paperback)
One of the fascinating things about weaving is that the simplest loom can be used to create the most complex textiles. Yes, it is easier and faster to use our more complex looms, but it is amazing to see what simple looms can do if you are willing to take the time and effort. This compilation about a collection of textiles interweaves the use of various looms and the textiles that they produce. Fascinating reading if you are interested in the history of weaving, or just fascinated by history!
