Do you ever get the itch to step away from drafts? You‘d like to sit down at the loom and weave, but feel more in the mood for improvising than for planning? First, you’re not alone. Second, we’ve got one word for you: Inlay.
Inlay is a supplementary technique in which you add pattern weft in the same shed as a ground cloth pick, and then lock that extra weft in place with the next ground cloth pick. Supplementary patterning can travel from selvedge to selvedge, or it can appear just exactly where you’d like to create shapes, pictures, and even words.
