5 out of 5 starsWell laid out, easy to read and follow. Have just finished making my 9th band and I'm happy to say it looks pretty good. Thanks to this book, I'm becoming an able bodied Inkle loom weaver !

5 out of 5 starsWonderful book on color theory applied to inkle plain weave. The yarn comparisons are so helpful. And the patterns provided tie into the free online pattern generator described in the book. So, like a pattern in the book, plug its code into the online pattern generator and receive the full pattern for warping and weaving. Just awesome!

Inkling my way through life.........
I am a passionate and prolific inkle weaver.
At the age of 17 I saw my first inkle loom and with the help of a library book and my dad, I built myself one. Now I own 10 inkle looms, some home-made and some made by large manufacturers. Each has it's own purpose. One for wider pieces, one for longer pieces, and one to pack in the suitcase for travel.
Inkle looms produce warp-faced bands, no wider than 6 inches.
Even with such a narrow constraint, I find endless ways to combine colors into patterns, constantly finding new materials, techniques and inspirations.
I enjoy custom orders and special requests. If you can't find what you are looking for, we can work together to create something special combing your vision and my talent.
I also have two other Etsy shops for special markets:
One-of-a-kind guitar straps can be found here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/WeaverGuitarStraps
Straps and sashes for historical costume, Native American regalia, etc can be found here:
