What is The Art of the Loom : Weaving, Spinning, and Dyeing Across the World about?
This is a reprint of a text previously published in 1989 (the British Museum Press), emphasizing traditional methods of weaving, spinning and dyeing. The introduction explains basic principles of these techniques. Each of the eight chapters following the introduction focuses on a specific region of the world and its textile form: Navaho Indian weaving, Arabian bedouin work, West African narrow-strip weaving, Nepalese inlay, Indonesian textiles, Japanese <i>kasuri</i> resist dyeing, Guatemalan decorative weavers, and Peruvian tapestries. For students, anthropologists, and practicing weavers. The text contains 169 illustrations, including 60 in color. <p>Annotation © Book News, Inc., Portland, OR</p>
