When you get a bit more advanced you need to begin buying books from
Arelate Studios and White Wolf and the Phoenix. Mistress Ingvild/Nancy
Spies has written some outstanding books on historical patterned weaves
and the others are nearly as good as to patterns. These people have
probably done more tablet weaving than almost anyone else in the
medieval fashion. I have 5 or six of their combined books.
