s Technique and Pattern Book #2 a ~ Lace curtains, rugs, towels, garments, & more! = on We — some very special new skills. First: you'll learn how to thread two heddles so that you can use fine threads at close setts, opening your weaving life to the beautiful fine cottons, silks, and linens that shaft-loom weavers love so well. You'll also learn pick-up techniques for weaving patterns in both spot Bronson and Atwater- Bronson lace, Once you understand how pick-up works, you'll be able to design and weave lace patterns that are far beyond the capacity of a shaft loom (unless shaft-loom weavers use a much more complicated pick-up technique than yours). The shaft loom does not have slot threads, and slots are the source of rigid-heddle pattern magic. From weaving the projects in this book, you'll also learn decorative finger-controlled techniques, including Brook's bouquet, soumak, and several types of leno. ‘And for weavers who don't have a rigid heddle loorn? This book is for you, too. All of the projects except one include instructions for shaft looms.
