Spinning & Weaving Week: Must-Have Weaving Book
Today, Debby Cook shares with us her the must-have book for her weaving shelf.
My “must-have” weaving item is Deborah Chandler’s Learning to Weave. Because I also knit, work full time AND part-time and have a full family life, I can sometimes have months go by between starting new projects. Deb Chandler’s book always has the answers I need to jumpstart my memory! It keeps me on track from winding my warp, warping back to front, right through treddling and finishing techniques. Oh, and the reed substitution page is well worn! This is the one book I would be lost weaving without.
What’s your must-have weaving book?

Anne Field’s 4-shaft book is my go-to. I’ve got the one you recommend, but doesn’t work for me.
