Doup Leno: A Quick and Simple System for Weaving Loom-Controlled Leno

The Loom-controlled leno method of weaving allows the continuity and speed of construction not possible in hand-picked leno. You can use it in weaving functional fabrics for clothing (loom-shaped or tailored), window fashions, sun-screens, table linens, or room dividers even on a table loom. And the design possibilities for nonfunctional uses of the technique are limited only by the creative imagination of the weaver. This monograph is the result of a 40 year love affair with leno. Its purpose is to put the methods and devices into simple terms for hand weavers, to add to weaving skills, and to inspire a continuation of previous research and designing. 47 pp.
