Book Reviews of The Big Book of Weaving: Handweaving in the Swedish Tradition: Techniques, Patterns, Designs and Materials
Book Review: Book is big and heavy, but print is tiny and faint
Summary: 3 Stars
The content of this book is okay, but the print is the smallest and faintest I've ever seen. There is abundant white space on the pages, which may be regarded as good from a design perspective, but slightly larger, darker print would be a lot more helpful. It's the only book I can't read without glasses.
