Weave leno lace successfully with clear, expert instructions from a master leno weaver.
Discover how to master and enjoy the lace-like, intricate, often mysterious-seeming leno
weave with this comprehensive guide. For new weavers and advanced-level weavers alike, the book combines historical information about leno with the best practical instructions and "secret" tips resulting from the author's years of
research and sampling.
Leno weaves, also called gauze weaves, are very sheer, yet at the same
time very durable because they are made with four warp threads
that are twisted around each other. Here, colorful photos of leno fabrics and step-by-step instructions, along with seven beautiful projects, help weavers learn leno pick up and many other techniques and structures like bead leno and Tarascan lace.
This is a one-of-a-kind resource for anyone who wants to learn to create this versatile weaving structure or further refine their leno skills.
