Irene Schmoller Shadow Weave Shawl

When I first reviewed this new book a few weeks ago, I hadn't taken the time to explore all it has to offer. I guess I was so in love with the designs that I overlooked the valuable information every weaver should know. Here's what you'll find in Weave*Knit*Wear:

Choosing equipment
Warping tips for RH looms
Weaving tips & broken ends
Finishing your fabrics
Knitting tools & techniques
Sewing basics
Taking body measurements
Designing & Planning Pattern Pieces
Calculating Yarn
Sleeve Challenges
Project Planner Worksheet
Color & Design
Choosing the Right Yarns

And did I mention that there are complete warping, weaving & finishing instructions to weave:

Wraps
Pullovers
Jackets
Vests
Accessories.

Whether you've been weaving for years, are new to weaving or you are curious about what weaving can do for you, you are going to LOVE Judith Shangold's new book. It's more than just a recipe book on how to weave gorgeous clothing! It's almost everything you need to know about designing your own stunning handwoven wardrobe!

Order your copy today! It's a MUST for your weaving resource library, whether you weave on a rigid heddle loom or one with 4/8/16 shafts.The design possibilities are very exciting! I know that I'm going to get one of the 30 projects on my loom. The only dilemma is which one!

I will be meeting with Judith Shangold in December to create several new kits with these designs to make weave them even easier!

Please share your project with us on our Cotton Clouds' Facebook page and contact Jodi or me if you have any questions about rigid heddle weaving.
