A short instructional pamphlet from the Tucson Public Schools Art Department on finger weaving, a tool-free braiding or plaiting method for making bands, belts and straps. It covers choosing yarns, preparing and attaching the warp (knots on a dowel or ring, overhand loops), and four weaving methods: from one side, with one warp thread, with an added weft thread, and from the center. It closes with ways of ending (overhand knots, Guatemalan braid, beads, fringes), helpful hints and a short reference list. Line drawings illustrate the knots and techniques.
