Collapse Weave
order quantity
NZ$ 45.00 each
Paperback
Author:
Anne Field
Customer Order Reference:
This new method of weaving, termed
Collapse Weave
, was an ancient form of decorative weaving largely overlooked by modern weavers. Collapse weave can be created by contrasting yarn factors, or combining weave structures that react with each other to create ridges and hollows. The deliberately pleated and puckered fabric produced has a flexibility of movement that makes it lovely to wear, and the uniqueness of the weave means the artistry of the weaver can be seen in the cloth. This is the kind of weaving that can only be created by hand, and is extremely satisfying to produce. Instructions are clearly written and easy to understand, and the book is fully illustrated with examples of the kinds of cloth produced, and clear, easy to follow diagrams.

Devore: For Weavers and Knitters

Paperback

Anne Field
Customer Order Reference:
Dévoré
is a process that has been used in the fashion industry for many years. Originally it was known as “poor man’s lace” and was called “broderie chimique” in Europe because it was used to simulate magazine embroidery. The main use of dévoré has been on cut velvet fabric with a pile of viscose or rayon on a silk backing. The rayon was burnt out leaving elaborate etched patterns on the transparent silk backing.
Dévoré
, from the French word for devour, occurs when sodium bisulphate is applied to the cloth, dried, then heated. The heat process causes the sodium bisulphate to eat away at the fabric, leaving the treated area transparent. This book shows you how to make the cloth for dévoré, the solution and the process to make your own beautiful dévoré fabrics.

Hardback
Author:
Alfred Moreton
Customer Order Reference:
Stories within this book tell of a time long since gone, when huge greenstones were discovered by first diggers in their quest for gold, on the West Coast of the South Island. The author established the second greenstone factory in Hokitika in the late sixties when the industry first started.
Huge and famous stones like The Nicholson Boulder - the largest high quality alluvial stone ever found in Westland, are featured. Beautiful sculptures, carvings and jewellery crafted from the stones all hold within them a fascinating story of this industry, so different to today with over 95% of all greenstone sold in New Zealand, made in China.
Learn all there is to know about New Zealand's national stone - how to work the stone and the varieties. Plus, with the Vesting Act returning all greenstone to our Maori people making it illegal to take the stone from creeks or river beds, find out where you can still go and search for the treasure and ...
