My Review

I just received this book and I can’t wait to do some of the mini weaving. As most people feel right now, I feel the need to do small things. So many projects in Weaving with Little Handmade Looms are now on my “To-do List.”
I gave a four-and-a-half star rating because some of the weaving terms lacked the proper meaning in translating from Japanese to English. For instance, “string” the loom instead of “warp” the loom and flat weaving instead of plain weaving. She does have an illustrated step-by-step instruction on diagonal or bias weaving, but she calls it “cross weaving.” My post, “Diagonal Weaving,” may help you if you need further guidance on this method.
But, if you aren’t familiar with weaving terminology, it probably doesn’t make any difference.
I am going to weave myself some minis.
