A blog about tablet weaving and how to design your own belts.
I had an idea for this belt, but I missed something and it turned out different than I expected. But in the end I think I like the result more than if I had succeeded. If you put it in the sun, it really glows.
I have developed several variations on diagonal patterns, both for 12 and 16 motif cards. These are in 16 motif cards. I will upload some on the design page soon.
I wanted to make a belt inspired from a painting from around the year 1400. Painting in the lower corner and my weave above. It didn’t turn out very well so half way through I changed my mind and added some pink threads in the empty holes.
I met up with some friends this weekend to do some weaving. It was nice, but I realised that I need to add more instructions to my page. I thought I had shared how to thread the loom for Sulawesi, but we encountered several problems. The threading seemed correct, but in some cases the motif was on the back side, and sometimes the starting position had to be changed for it to work.
Here are some pictures.
