Color and structure are vital elements in weaving, of course. But what about texture? Dimensional fabrics - with their pleats, puffs, and curves - reflect the flowing, organic forms of nature. We can both see and feel the tactile nature of cloth, which adds to the beauty of handwoven fabric.This book gives you tools to optimize texture in your weaving. Starting with details on the history, background, and techniques involved, it then offers step-by-step instructions for 12 projects for 4 to 16 shaft looms. Weaving Outside the Box provides all the tips and resources you need to move beyond the two-dimensional plane of warp and weft.
