Shaped Tapestry by Kathe Todd-Hooker A book full of information about weaving tapestries. Includes techniques for creating non-rectangular shaped and pulled tapestries. Methods innclude shaping the loom itself, using weave structures that cause the weaving to become shaped, and using scaffolds and other devices to hold areas of warp that are then manipulated into 3-D shapes when the weaving is finished. Special finishing for these types of techniques are also covered. This 2nd edition of the book has a section on shaping by adding surface dimension with techniques like rya, pulled loops, and attaching feathers.
Includes 88 pages of text, colour photos, and black and white drawings and photos. Spiral bound so that it lies flat for quick reference when working at the loom.
