Overshot, with its fantastical names and wonderful patterning, is a great structure for 4-shaft weavers.
I thought I was sampling for color, but to my surprise, it ended up being a sample for sett.
The theme of drafts for the May/June 2020 issue of Handwoven was my idea. Here’s why.
Choosing three drafts to use in one blended draft took most of a day. It's not as straightforward as you would think.
Here’s to not playing on our phones and instead, using this time for weaving.
In these uncertain times, I’ve decided it’s best to keep weaving. I want to weave 13 towels for the summer, and to avoid boredom, I’m going to try a blended draft, but of 3 rather than 2 drafts.
At what point in your weaving career do you stop making errors? Read on about a few that I just made.
Someone once told me that experienced weavers didn’t read Handwoven. I beg to differ.
Staying in might spur you to try new techniques such as the weft color blending I used in my scarf.
Taking a project from design through sampling and then completion is slower when you weave only on the weekends.
