Sometimes, it's safer to trust the Wolf rather than the Prince... After her mother’s death, Asajia discovers that the sheriff is planning to confiscate her inheritance, and force her into indentured servitude, another way of forcing her into his bed. Rather than accept her fate, she escapes into the darkly enchanted Bramble Fel Forest—a forest cursed with the perpetual breath of Winter, nightmarish creatures, and dark, dangerous secrets. Asajia would rather take her chances with the real monsters than submit to the vile man. Unfortunately, the sheriff doesn’t like to lose, and he sends a raiding party to find her with orders to bring her back at any cost. Once in the shadow of the forest, Asajia hopes she’s escaped. The raiders track her down and she’s outnumbered with nowhere to run. A band of outcast wolf shifters arrives just in time to rescue her, and she soon finds herself pulled to their leader Bran, who is equally smitten with her. But when his brother, the prince, summons the riders back to the Castle Eleago, everything begins to go wrong. Prince Karehl is far more dangerous than any of the creatures in the wild, and he takes an interest in Asajia. When he arrests her beloved Bran, Asajia knows she has to escape or become Karehl’s prisoner. Along with some of the Lorani—the riders of the Wolf People—she heads deep into the forest. Will her choice lead to her ruin or will it give her a life she never imagined possible?

Budding floor and table loom weavers need only to approach this subject with a sense of adventure and willingness to learn such basics as step-by-step warping, basic weaving techniques, project planning, reading and designing drafts, the basics of all the most common weave structures, and many more handy hints. Beginners will find this guidebook an invaluable teacher, while more seasoned weavers will find food for thought in the chapters on weave structures and drafting.
The author has brought together her favourite weaving patterns using four, six and eight shafts. Projects are suitable for all levels of weaving experience, with many patterns sourced from archival materials from local museums.
Step out of the weaving comfort zone and experiment with something new! Weave structures often have specific threading and treadling patterns that are unique to that particular weave structure and not shared with others. This book takes you out of the traditional method of weaving overshot patterns by using different treadling techniques. This will include weaving overshot patterns as Summer/Winter, Italian manner, starburst, crackle, and petit point just to name a few. The basic image is maintained in each example but the design takes on a whole new look! Each chapter walks you through the setup for each method and includes projects with complete drafts and instructions so it’s easy to start weaving and watch the magic happen! Try the patterns for scarves, table runners, shawls, pillows and even some upholstered pieces. Once you've tried a few projects, you'll be able to apply what you've learned to any piece you desire!
