A Handbook of Weaves

G. H. Oelsner

Pattern Book
 G. H. Oelsner’s A Handbook of Weaves is the best known and most
accessible weaving pattern book.

Kris Bruland has digitized the patterns in this book and put WIFs
for them on http://www.handweaving.net, where they can be down-
loaded without charge.
The patterns here have been derived from the WIFs and provided
for browsing and easy identification of patterns of interest.

The patterns are organized by size, width first. Identifying numbers

for the WIFs are given below the patterns. For example, 31710 refers to
31710.wif on http://www.handweaving.net.
There are two separately paginated sections. The first section of 15
pages contains color-and-weave effect patterns. The second section con-
tains the rest of the patterns.

Material in this document may be used freely for individual projects,

but republication is prohibited.
