Recenzii

"The tāniko technique is a specialist method of weaving predominant in traditional Māori costumes. Māori weavers evolved a method of finger weaving to construct geometrical patterns, traditionally in red, black and white, for use in headbands, belts and bodices. Starting with the history of traditional Māori costumes, this book offers a description of tāniko weaving, its discovery and development. The author details the materials used, traditionally flax (Phormium tenax) and its preparation, together with how fibres were dyed. There is an interesting chapter on style and tāniko patterns illustrating how this has changed through the ages. This is followed by a classification of patterns which are presented in draft form for weavers to use. The instructions for learning the tāniko weaving technique are presented toward the end of the book. These include designing a pattern; warp and weft preparation; casting on to form a selvedge and weaving the pattern. The instructions for a sampler and belt are given in diagrammatic form and are relatively easy to follow. There are also ideas for adding ornamentations such as tags, pompoms and fringes. I found this book fascinating as both a cultural history and insight into Māori costume and an instructional guide to tāniko weaving." - Jill Riley, Glamorgan and Online Guilds
