The latest version (2016) of the much-loved weaving text by Erenora Puketapu-Hetet is a must have for all students of Maori weaving.
At the time Erenora wrote this book, it was one of the first written from a weaver's perspective. A valuable resource for all weaving students, Maori Weaving with Erenora Puketapu-Hetet emphasises the importance of the spiritual side of Maori weaving, which cannot be separated from the manual skills. The book includes a guide to the many plants that can be used for weaving and dyeing and step-by-step instructions for weaving a kono, a headband and two kinds of traditional plaits.
