The Techniques Of Rug Weaving by Peter Collingwood, first published in 1968, offers a clear, illustrated guide to traditional rug‑making methods for anyone interested in textile crafts. This non‑fiction volume blends practical instruction with cultural insight, making it a valuable reference for hobbyists, educators and collectors alike.
The book is a hardcover with its original dust jacket, though the jacket shows some scuffing and wear from use. Inside, the page edges and the front and back inner covers exhibit light foxing, as do the first and last four pages, but the binding remains tight and the pages are clean, free of writing, dog‑ears or tears.
Printed in English, this vintage edition is in sound condition and comes from a smoke‑free home, ensuring the paper has been well preserved. Its thorough coverage of rug‑weaving techniques makes it a useful addition to any arts and crafts library or a thoughtful gift for aspiring weavers of all ages.
