Creative Treadling with Overshot: Explorations in Weave Structure & 36 Projects - Paperback

by Susan Kesler-Simpson (Author)

This book takes the weaver out of the traditional method of weaving overshot patterns by using different treadling techniques. This will include weaving overshot patterns as summer/winter, Italian manner, starburst, crackle, and petit point just to name a few. The basic image is maintained in each example but the design takes on a whole new look.
