Imagine being able to weave overshot along the length of your cloth with just one shuttle or being able to weave terry cloth towels for your bath. All this and more is possible on just four shafts by using a supplementary warp. Back by popular demand, this sought-after book hasn"t been available for a long time. The revised and expanded edition features nearly twice as many projects as the original book, with five all-new projects and a new weaving structure. Handweavers will learn weaving expert Deb Essen"s easy warping method, how to turn drafts for one-shuttle weaving, and Deb"s tips and techniques for warping a supplementary draft successfully. Once you have the warping down, weave any of the projects using the weave structures Deb teaches you. Each project explores a different supplemental warp structure, from turned overshot and monk"s belt to Bedford cord and even velvet. And no second back beam is required for your loom!

This well-crafted book is impressive for what it tells us about the evolution of public history in an age when marginalized groups are competing for attention. As the text unfolds, Falls and Smith carefully knit evidence about coverlets into a larger story about how museums and historic houses interpret, and misinterpret, the work-life of African American women and women from yeoman households. Overshot captures the attention of the nonspecialist as well as the specialist in skillfully demonstrating that coverlets are both art and craft.

Overshot is a traditional weave structure, did you know you can do many versatile weave structures and get many different looks in the finished cloth? This 3 day workshop will explore the many different options you have with one threading of traditional Overshot.
