Wheat weaving is an ancient folk art made to celebrate a successful harvest. Today straw designs are admired for their beauty and intricacy. In this volume, celebrated straw artist Linda D Beiler provides advice on the tools and materials needed to get started; tips on preparing the straw; step-by-step projects for mastering the techniques of plaiting, folding, and spiralling; and more projects for combining techniques and adding decorative touches. Helpful series photographs demonstrate the process for creating hearts, bows, Arabic cages, Welsh fans, and a variety of abstract pieces.
