Weaving Library

Are you a book collector? I am! Every time I start a new hobby, I start collecting books on the
subject. It’s just another one of my addictions. Whether you are a serious book collector or not,
a few good books are a necessity for any weaving library.

I found my collection of weaving books to be very valuable as I worked on Level l of my
Certificate of Excellence in Handweaving. It was so nice to be able to find answers to my
questions and the techniques I needed to learn on my own shelves at home. I did not have to plan
what I needed to look for in the Guild library at the next meeting or count on finding the
information in the limited titles found at the local library.

There are a few weaving books I think every weaver should have on hand. I have a good sized
library, but it is not all inclusive. Some books will not be for everyone. A lot depends on your
loom and the type of weaving that interests you most. So stay tuned for recommendations to see
if any of these books will be a “must have” for your weaving library.

Can’t live without books. I, too, collect many when I’m interested in a topic. My weaving and fiber arts library is precious to me, and I enjoy re-reading older books that I’ve had, as I always discover some new little tidbit in them.
