The Big Book of Weaving I purchased this book for more information and in a different format than the books I had gave me. I was more than pleased when it arrived. This book is for beginners all the way to experienced weavers. Formally printed in Swedish, the pictures gave good visiual instructions. Now printed in English, everything is even more clear. I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in weaving.
A disappointment This is a very good book for beginning weavers. It is well written, with step by step instructions, clear illustrations and nice projects. However for the more experienced weaver it has precious little to offer.
Great book A great book that is finally in English so that we American weavers can read it.
Book is big and heavy, but print is tiny and faint The content of this book is okay, but the print is the smallest and faintest I've ever seen. There is abundant white space on the pages, which may be regarded as good from a design perspective, but slightly larger, darker print would be a lot more helpful. It's the only book I can't read without glasses.
