Interesting history of rag weaving in Japan, and a weaving book with an original and different point of view.
As for the weaving instructions, I found enough help here to immediately take an old Japanese rayon tunic dress, cut it into ribbons, and weave a Sakiori scarf to my satisfaction on my rigid heddle loom. The advice on what yarns and weaving techniques will soften the drape of Sakiori is great. No one wants to make a scarf that feels like a rag rug.
I also appreciated the advice on how to calculate the yield from found fabrics and recycled items. This supports Robinette’s ecological point of view and aligns the Western Sakiori weaver with historical Japanese practice.
I am not an experiaced weaver: I’ve never touched a four shaft loom, but I find Amanda
Robinette’s four shaft instructions easier to understand than Knisely’s in his book on Rag rugs.
Whether a weaver will be “inspired by the projects in this book” depends on whether he or she likes the colors and the rags Robinette has chosen to weave. I don’t care for magenta, but with my own choice of weaving materials, I don’t have to use magenta.
Robinette has a lot of interesting ideas. A motivated Sakiori weaver will find a great deal of carefully presented advice in this book.

广告
Sakiori is an approach to rag weaving used by Japanese peasants to cope with the scarcity of new cloth for clothing and household textiles. In modern times, there is instead an overabundance of cloth filling up thrift stores and being discarded. Weavers can use this source of “rags” to make useful and surprising new cloth. Depending on the fabric used, results can be rugged and utilitarian (like cotton rugs) or fashionable and delicate (like silk scarves).
The book begins with an overview of the history and context of sakiori in Japan, followed by methods and tips for successful rag weaving with a variety of materials and looms, including rigid heddle looms as well as floor looms. Charts and worksheets make it easy to find the information weavers need to get started, and 21 projects with instructions and drafts provide inspiration and ideas.

I was excited to see this book as I love the idea of using rags in weaving but don't have an appropriate loom for doing rag rugs. Thinking this would inspire me with more creative ideas, I was disappointed that there is nothing all that unique about the projects presented here. Many of them are downright unattractive to me. You may get more useful technique information on preparing and handling rags from other rag rug weaving books. The one technique that is covered well about sakiori is the part about using one or two picks of a thinner yarn between rag picks. The brief section on the history of sakiori was interesting.
