This book was written so that the art of fingerweaving would not become a lost art.
The author has given clear instructions, great illustrations, and a multitude of pictures for learning.
The technique of adding beads in the weaving is also covered. (I have not seen this technique in other books on the subject.)
There are also pictures illustrating the traditional use of fingerweaving based on Native American
heritage. . . Ursula
