I quite subscribing to Handwoven 2 years ago. Last night, looking for
inspiration for my proposed towel project on the AVL, I started with the
most recent year, 2004, and started going through the back issues.
Result: I'm giving away 2000-2004 because there's only a couple
projects I have any interest in (and only ONE project is worth thinking
about photocopying before I give away the stack). Many whole issues
really have no weaving at all except plain weave to then fold, spindle,
and mutilate. Much of the work is just plain UGLY, much of it is poorly
designed, and much of it totally unfunctional. Coincidently, Marilyn
took over editing for the last issue of 1999.
I gave her 5 years to prove she could do better at Handwoven than she
did at Weavers. Actually, though I never much liked Weavers, I think
she did a better job over there. A lot of money wasted.
