Tapestry Weaving

Kirsten Glasbrook demonstrates the ancient art of tapestry weaving using wool yarn, fine linen and cotton on simple rectangular frames with notches, or purpose-built looms for larger tapestries. She shows step by step how to weave gorgeous tapestries, from choosing colours and winding warps through to creating images and finishing off with tassels and beads. Readers will learn how to create horizontal and diagonal lines, curves, motifs, shading, outlines, borders and more. There is a gallery of beautiful finished works to inspire everyone from beginners to experienced weavers. This best-selling title has been re-issued to inspire a whole new generation.Author: Glasbrook, Kirsten,author Contributors: Glasbrook, Kirsten,author Binding: paperback Number Of Pages: 96 Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Format: illustrated Edition: Illustrated Published/Release Date: 27 Jul 2015 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Search Press Ltd Author/Director/Artist: Kirsten Glasbrook Dimension (cm): 292x217x7 mm Package Dimension (cm): 9x292x215 mm Item Weight (g): 1050 Package Weight (g): 440
