You love your loom. All the relatives and friends have blankets and placemats. Where do you go from here? How about making clothing?
Clothing Patterns from The Weaving Room is a graduated series of patterns. The construction techniques are based on the ones of the mass-produced, easy-to-care-for sportswear that we wear every day. The patterns outline the process of clothing design and construction in a straightforward way. Construction ideas and techniques are introduced in a logical progression that will take you from basic, simple forms and grow more complex as you proceed through the designs presented here. Each pattern addresses a specific problem, such as, “How narrow can I make a sleeve?” If you begin with Pattern #1, and proceed through them at one pattern a month, you will complete a course in pattern design.
