I have a question about an issue that is being discussed in my guild. Should you leave the lease sticks in the warp, behind the shafts, after you have finished threading?
For those of you out there who are ready to make the step from weaving patterns to adjusting them to fit your own needs, but are worried about the math, shrinkage, or other issues we have got the web seminar for you!
The plain-weave Chanuka Placemats use an 8-shaft point threading to facilitate the inlay process. You can set the table with plain old placemats, but these really set the stage for the 8 nights of Chanuka.
After my son was born (and even for a while before then), I found myself in a weaving rut. Then I fell in love with a special yarn and knew it would be the basis for my next project.
When I picnic, I like to bring my handwoven napkins with me. Using cloth when you’re dining al fresco is just logical. It won’t blow away, so you don’t have to worry about chasing a stray napkin across the park.
Last year a parliament of owls stopped by some trees near the office. Weavers and birds have a lot in common. Don’t believe me? Please allow me to elucidate.
There are a lot of people who are weaveworthy—who deserve the time and effort and creativity of a handwoven gift—but there are also many who might not be, and you have to be careful about where your handwoven projects end up.
I am new to this grand weaving adventure! However, I can not find any videos or good instructions about warping my sectional beam. Help!
I am planning a project from Handwoven's Design Collection 19. Instead of the 10/2 Tencel specified, I ordered 8/2 Tencel. Can I use this in place of the 10/2 and should I change the sett from 2 per dent in 12- dent reed to another reed or sleying order?
