Each issue provides in-depth information on a weaving-related topic, as well as several projects. From the publisher's website: We often think of our loom's weaving width as a limi ting factor for the widest cloth we can weave. While textiles woven in panels and seamed together offer much room for creativity, double weave allows you to weave a fabric up to twice as wide as your loom, as long as you're willing to give up half the shafts to the other layer. Projects include a double-width plain-weave blanket on four shafts, a double-width twill blanket on eight shafts, a double-width baby towel with bias binding cut from a handwoven tubular striped fabric.
