This book is very dated; gave away to Chris Rodick September 2014

This book is very well written and has some fascinating projects in it. It's given me some great ideas on what can be made on the inkle loom. The only caveat is that this book contains projects that were popular in the 60's and 70's. Various head bands, guitar straps, room dividers, etc. Took me back in time to be sure. The nice thing is that even if you never plan to make one of her projects, you can still adapt it to 2009. For example, the poncho is timeless, the headbands can be updated and you have a great basis for where to begin.
