Makes me long for a hobby that I have no time for and is potentially beyond the capabilities of my patience. Beautiful book! Very descriptive and has some neat projects in it!

What an incredible amount of wonderfully presented weaving knowledge.
There are hundreds of pictures and ideas of how to incorporate what can be learned from this book.
A must-own for any weaver at any level in their journey.

This has been my go-to rigid-heddle weaving book for several years. The instructions are clear and concise. The photos are detailed and well-done. Inventive Weaving on a Little Loom covers so many varied topics. It’s not just simple weaving, but includes color theory, troubleshooting, techniques, and more in easy to understand language.
The book is not just for new weavers. While I was definitely a beginner when I first bought this book, I learned so much from reading it. The joy of Inventive Weaving is that as your skills grow, you can go back through the sections and learn even more.
The pages are slick and glossy on heavy paper, so the book holds up well to repeated use.
This is a book you will use for years to come. It’s well worth the price for the paperback.

Like other intro books, it covers a lot of ground, opting to try to explore the full range of what's possible on a rigid heddle loom, rather than diving into detail on any one technique. FWIW, I liked this book a little more than "The Weaver's Idea Book", though they are very similar. It covers a bit more (3-heddle weaves; using unexpected materials; duop leno), though it had fewer samples of exploration within each technique.
(I checked this out from my local library on Kindle. Again, the digital formatting was awful, but that's to be expected on books like this that are meant to be read in hard copy.)
