A Book of Patterns for Hand-Weaving; Designs from the John Landes Drawings in the Pennsylvnia Museum (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781408693193)

This vintage book contains an extensive collection of patterns for hand-weaving, including designs from the John Landes Drawings in the Pennsylvania Museum, with drafts and notes by Mary Meigs Atwater. This catalogue of patterns will be of considerable utility to those with a keen interest in hand-weaving, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of related literature. Mary Meigs Atwater was an extremely important figure in the revitalisation of hand-weaving in the early twentieth century, and is often described as the 'Dean of American Hand-Weaving'. Many antiquarian books such as this are increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this vintage book now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a new prefatory biography of the author.
