Learn how to make colorful, gorgeously patterned rugs using the
200-year-old techniques of the Shakers. The author researched and
analyzed textiles at five historic Shaker village sites before
developing a method to create new versions of these classics.
You'll learn how ten original rugs were woven and then get detailed
instructions on how to make ten reproduction rugs, with full
explanations of the dyeing, the warp material, the weft materials,
and how to weave, as well as instructions for weaving Shaker tapes.
Learn about the history of the Shakers in America and the impact of
their craftsmanship on our arts tradition. Like all items used in
daily Shaker life, these rugs have three outstanding
characteristics: they are unusual in their design, they are perfect
for the purpose they are meant to serve, and they are beautiful in
quality.
