Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Weaving, by Hand and by Power: With an Introductory Account of Its Rise and Progress in Ancient and Modern Times In making books we own that we are 'green,' And for defects this should be some apology. The author of this Treatise has not been Plucking sufficient fruit from off the knowledge tree; A fact which by our readers will be seen, Without the proofs afforded by phrenology; But, to avoid the evils of satiety, We shall endeavour to give some variety. Materials inexhaustible abound, Which, if well handled, might adorn our pages; By learning, metaphysical, profound, We might, no doubt, be rank'd among the sages; The natives too, perhaps, we might astound, With lists comparative of weavers' wages; Or, essays on political economy; Or, loftier still, the science of astronomy. Though all these themes are worthy of attention, We think it proper in this place to state, That to exclude all chances of dissension, The author shall not in this Work relate A sentence, which, by men of comprehension, Could e'er be deem'd admitting of debate: Hence, politics we never once shall touch, Lest we should say too little, or too much. 'Tis wisdom to make hay while weather's sunny; But, here we should not be misunderstood: We disavow all thoughts of making money: We publish solely for the public good, (Our own included). Op'ning flowers yield honey; This book shall yield to weavers ample food; Food for the mind, which, when digested, may Yield food to fill the body every day. The present Work is not a periodical; We do not publish number after number Poetic, philosophical, rhapsodical, With shining gems amidst a mass of lumber. Our plan, in most respects, is quite methodical. Meantime, our readers we shall not encumber With more remarks, but show them, with facility, A specimen or two of our ability.

Download or read book Weaving Western Sakiori written by Amanda Robinette and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-06-30 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sakiori is an approach to rag weaving used by Japanese peasants to cope with the scarcity of new cloth for clothing and household textiles. In modern times, there is instead an overabundance of cloth filling up thrift stores and being discarded. Weavers can use this source of “rags” to make useful and surprising new cloth. Depending on the fabric used, results can be rugged and utilitarian (like cotton rugs) or fashionable and delicate (like silk scarves). The book begins with an overview of the history and context of sakiori in Japan, followed by methods and tips for successful rag weaving with a variety of materials and looms, including rigid heddle looms as well as floor looms. Charts and worksheets make it easy to find the information weavers need to get started, and 21 projects with instructions and drafts provide inspiration and ideas.
