Helpful Links and Resources for this Issue
If you’re making Emily Barth’s Woolly Cocoon Bags and need a refresher on Damascus edges, you can watch Tom Knisely make one.
You’ll also find a diagram of the half-Damascus edge in Patricia Crane’s Diamonds and Bars Twill Rug project on pages 51–53 in the March/April 2019 issue of Handwoven. To go full Damascus, flip your piece over and repeat the knotting on the other side.
Linda Riley designed her Shimmering Wings Scarf after studying the Corris Effect Drafts collection by Margaret Coe and Amy Norris on Handweaving.net.
Amy Norris talks about the Corris Effect on the Long Thread Podcast.
Sue Anne Sullivan’s Damselfly Scarf draft was inspired by the lovely turned honeycomb towels designed by Kate Lange McKibben, from the November/December 2019 issue of Handwoven.
Sue Anne’s project uses double hemstitching, also known as Italian hemstitching. You’ll find step-by-step photos here, or on page 35 in the May/June 2017 issue.
When Sydney Sogol designed her Blue Morpho Runner, she was inspired by the beautiful movement found in Kit Frost’s block twill patterns. You can see some of those drafts on Handweaving.net: #80022, #80518, and #80020.
