Next, you will learn all the basics of doubleweave techniques, as well as tips and tricks of setting up the warp, and a variety of doubleweave specialty techniques all shown through detailed process photography and a wealth of swatches demonstrating different effects. Specialty techniques are shown for 4-shaft and 8-shaft looms. The weaving effects covered include lace, tubular weave, pick-up, color mixing, and more.

Book Synopsis Hand Spinning Cotton by : Olive Linder
Download or read book Hand Spinning Cotton written by Olive Linder and published by . This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The art of cotton spinning has become more sophisticated since Harry and Olive Linder first set out to disprove the myth that cotton was more difficult to spin than any other fiber. When the Linders first self-published Handspinning Cotton in 1977, there were very few spinners spinning cotton; it was an almost forgotten art.Handspinning Cotton has been out-of-print since 1995 and has been sorely missed. Currently, there is no single spinning book devoted solely to cotton fiber and the unique techniques for spinning it. The rights to the Linder's self-published book has remained in their family's hands since Harry and Olive's passing. As two of the Linder's first protégés, their daughters have asked us to update and republish this treasured book.It is our honor and privilege to try to do justice to the spirit of these cotton gurus who started a cotton-spinning revolution. While cotton spinning has grownup in the past 40 years, and there are many changes in how to approach cotton spinning, we have striven, in updating this book, to keep to the original spirit of Harry and Olive Linder's teaching. Their book is still a treasure and should stay intact for all future generations of cotton spinners.
