From expert weaver Anne Dixon is "The Weaver's Inkle Pattern
Directory"--the ultimate resource for inkle weavers. Inkle weaving
is a simple technique that offers ample opportunity for
experimentation by beginners and experienced weavers. This book

comprehensive tool available to weavers.
You'll discover:
- An overview of inkle weaving's history and traditions.

trims and neckpieces. They can be stitched together to make bags,
mobile-phone purses, cushion-covers, table-mats, and much more.
