Easy Weaving with Supplemental Warps: Overshot, Velvet, Shibori, and More

By Deb Essen.

Imagine being able to weave overshot along the length of your cloth with just one shuttle or being able to weave terry cloth towels for your bath. All this and more is possible on just four shafts by using a supplementary warp.

Back by popular demand, this sought-after book hasn't been available for a long time. The revised and expanded edition features nearly twice as many projects as the original book, with five all-new projects and a new weaving structure. Handweavers will learn weaving expert Deb Essen's easy warping method, how to turn drafts for one-shuttle weaving, and Deb's tips and techniques for warping a supplementary draft successfully. Once you have the warping down, weave any of the projects using the weave structures Deb teaches you. Each project explores a different supplemental warp structure, from turned overshot and monk's belt to Bedford cord and even velvet. And no second back beam is required for your loom!
