Handwoven Scarves

by Interweave Press (Editor)

This book presents 50 handwoven scarves created by internationally known weavers and fabric artists. From light silk to chunky chenille, from subtle white-on-white jacquard to bold magenta and goldenrod plaid, from four-inch-wide neck wraps to three-foot-wide body wraps, there is a scarf here to delight and encourage every handweaver. Drafts of the weave structure and design notes encourage and guide handweavers of varying skill to making their own beautiful scarves. Full-page, full-color photographs of each scarf and biographies of the contributing weavers are also included.

Don't buy this book if you are looking for complete recipes. Most of the designers want to keep their patterns secret, like the recipe for coke or a prize winning butter tart.
It s an inspiration and a challenge.
