Login Purchase Single ProductPaying attention to details just comes naturally to most weavers—they know a little extra here and there can make a big difference. This issue celebrates meticulous design and embraces it with twelve projects that show how details can enhance handweaving whether it happens during planning, at the warping board, on the loom, or during the final stages of finishing. Details enhance the projects in the issue while giving ideas and tips to the reader about ways they can incorporate those same techniques in their own projects.
The articles in the issue center around the same theme and include Finishing Tips by Tom Knisely, Patterned Inlay on a Plain-Weave Background by Nancy Peterson, a Spotlight by Chitra Balasubamaniam on jamdani, a special inlay technique woven in India, and an Idea Gallery by Nancy Crampton that describes how she translates card-weaving patterns to 4-shaft drafts. The Traditions article by Tina Fletcher and Linda Barnett tells about a collaboration between the two friends that has led to them donating handwoven liturgical stoles to African-American ministers going through hard times. For the Yarn Lab, Judy Stewart wove using Treenway Silks Shanta, a special wild silk yarn.
