{"product_id":"norwegian-pick-up-bandweaving","title":"Norwegian Pick-Up Bandweaving","description":"For the first time in English, a complete book about Norwegian pick-up band weaving from its fascinating history to beautiful bands you can make yourself, with more than 100 pattern charts from bands in museum collections. Part 1 tells the story of how these bands were used in the rural communities of 18th and 19th century Norway, as stocking bands, swaddling bands, sending bands, and more. Part 2 looks closely at twenty bands brought to America by Norwegian immigrants, and what they tell us about traditional patterns, colors, and materials. Part 3 has clear and concise instructions for weaving pick-up on simple, traditional band heddles, and these instructions can also be adapted to other kinds of looms. Meticulously researched, easy-to-read, and profusely illustrated, this book is destined to become a classic in the field. It will interest not only weavers but anyone who appreciates textile arts, folk costumes, and Norwegian culture.\n\n176 pp | 152 illustrations\n","brand":"Schiffer Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50510511276352,"sku":"9780764347511","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/5097\/2224\/files\/a3ce0b87619db9ba1e8395e4ca64006a71b6385a22a0a39e3dd0e516aecb81a6.jpg?v=1744134424","url":"https:\/\/decoybookstore.com\/products\/norwegian-pick-up-bandweaving","provider":"Decoy Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
