In the first book devoted to the exciting designs that can be produced by the color-and-weave method, Margaret and Thomas Windeknecht explore to the fullest its vast pattern potential. Color-and-weave combines a standard woven structure with a dark/light sequence in both the warp and the weft in such a way that the original characteristics of both the woven structure and the color or contrast may change. It is a method weavers can use to produce a wide variety of patterns that can be achieved through no other means. This book includes 900 pattern variations. 192 pp.

The pinwheel motif is presented in weaves ranging from two to sixteen shafts and from fine to large effects. The monograph takes you through that range with 46 pages of drawdowns and black&white photographs. Many of the patterns use three tones - dark, medium and light. The pinwheel motif also is used as a basis for designing tie-ups. Ideal for self study or for a study group interested in pattern weaving or fashion fabrics!
