weaving history,
By Mariteje "Maria Elena" (Trinidad, Colorado) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: On Weaving (Dover Craft Books) (Paperback)
Buy this book if you are into history of weaving and admire personalities and their philosophies. I was looking for more instruction on design and was disappointed.
