Certificates of Excellence

Bibliography: COE in Handweaving
Revised June, 2001


This bibliography lists citations which can be useful for completing requirements for the Certificate of Excellence in Handweaving (COE-W). Many other references could have been listed which would have served equally well, so this listing makes no claim to be complete or preferable to other choices. The multiple references for many requirements are intended to provide a choice for study. Most of these references are available through lending libraries, universities, weaving teachers, and museum libraries. A COE applicant need not refer to all sources listed.
