Undulating Weft Effects (Honeycomb) Shuttle Craft Monograph 9 door Harriet Tidball (malicew)
malicew: Undulating Weft Effects is a very useful, clear, description of honeycomb and related weaves that includes tips for working with the structure, drafts with good pictures, variations, and good explanations of key elements in each draft. It is an excellent monograph from Shuttle Craft (1963) that would be useful for exploring this class of weaves.… (meer)

Sharon Alderman's comprehensive volume starts at the beginning (plain weave) and works through twills, satin, waffle, compound weave structures, distorted threads, cords and piques, crepes and pile weaves. The book is beautifully illustrated with color photos and clean, easy to read drafts. As Alderman takes you through the various weave structures, she also educates you on how to do your own design work. There is also a very nice description of profile drafts and what they are Most of the drafts use four to eight shafts; a very few are for multishaft looms. This is a book with much to teach weavers of all skill levels. (

As a beginning weaver, I found this book useful in detailing what happens when different fibers or warping configurations are used. The book is very broad, the patterns shown take from 2 to 16 shafts to weave. Since I only have a 4-shaft loom I won't be able to make use of a lot of the book until I add some more shafts, but it was useful to see what could be done, and there are some instances where the author was able to give 4-shaft versions of a usually 8-shaft weave such as a crepe. In all a worthwhile book. (
