The Handweaver's Pattern Directory Review: A 'must have' book for any weaver - I seldom buy books new, full priced. I'm far too cheap for that (and besides, I'd rather spend my money on yarn or fiber!). But I am SO very glad I splurged on this one and pre-ordered it so I'd get it as soon as it came out. It is an incredible resource for weavers. Each of the patterns is accompanied by a sharp photo of the sample, with "close up" views of many. The directions are clear and in keeping with standard Interweave publications (as in Handwoven). There are short but valuable chapters on general weaving, supplies, yarns, etc., although the emphasis -- and the value -- is on the patterns. I've been a weaver for about 20 years and I own a fairly substantial library of weaving books and have owned, at one time or another, nearly every issue of Handwoven and Weaver's Journal magazines. Yet there were still many patterns in this book I do not think I've ever seen. The patterns are categorized by types, from simple tabby and twills to complex distorted weft , bronson and even hand manipulated weaves. All are threaded for a four-shaft loom. See "customer images" under the photo above for a scan of a sample page. The physical layout and design of the book is excellent as well. With the heavy duty spiral binding, it lays flat for easy reference and there is even a pull out "flap" in the back with the "legend" for the patterns, so you don't have to flip back and forth to figure out the drafts (although they're very intuitive and standard). This book should serve me well for my next 20 years of weaving, which means it will cost me slightly more than a buck a year! That's an investment well worth making. Review: A must-have for four-shaft loom weavers. - Great resource. Love having it around, even just for browsing. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #79,768 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #21 in Weaving (Books) #121 in Crafts & Hobbies Reference #160 in Fiber Arts & Textiles | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 4.9 out of 5 stars (753) | | Dimensions | 7.72 x 1.1 x 9.68 inches | | Edition | 3rd | | ISBN-10 | 1596680407 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1596680401 | | Item Weight | 2.04 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | October 1, 2007 | | Publisher | Krause Craft | ## Images ![The Handweaver's Pattern Directory - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81etSi7wKDL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A 'must have' book for any weaver *by B***. on January 13, 2008* I seldom buy books new, full priced.
