Anna
Neuper's Modelbuch:
Early Sixteenth-Century Patterns for Weaving Brocaded Bands
by Nancy Spies with Ute Bargmann |
| Unlike her
earlier book, Ecclesiastical Pomp and Aristocratic Circumstance,
this is a nothing but a pattern book and will not be of much interest to
those who do not do tablet weaving. That is, except for the
introduction, which tells a fascinating story of the origins of these
patterns. These are a group of patterns for tablet-woven
bands that were written down in the 16th century by a German nun.
Nancy Spies has put them in modern notation and worked them to remove
some mistakes.
