A Tablet Weaver's Record Book will help you take the guess work out of planning your tablet weaving. It covers some of the many yarn notation styles used by the weaving and crafting industries, along with the methods needed to convert between them; how to use your completed bands to help you work out your take-up and shrinkage percentages; the variables to consider when calculating how much warp yarn you need; and how to estimate your weft requirements. 40 detailed planning sheets are included to help you make records of your weaving, with a pre-filled example based on a sample draft. This book does not give advice on weaving itself, but a list of resources is given at the back for those who wish to improve their skills or find out more about the art of tablet weaving.
