Good info for our rigid heddle weavers!
3-shaft weaving on a rigid heddle loom? Journal 274 contains an in-depth look at how to weave more complex cloth using this simple tool. Dinah Clements has produced an article with crystal clear diagrams showing how you can weave Twill, Summer & Winter and Swedish lace.
This looks like a great activity to do!! Check out the warp & weave link... best news - it’s free!!

Old time lore for sure!
Today in our blog @AnneKristinesl writes about the 17th century Danish Herbal book 'Flora Danica', and how it advises to care for clothing. Inspiring read for all of us working from home and avoiding that laundry bin...😅 refashioningrenaissance.eu/to-remove-ink-…
Fascinating story!!
A bit of detective work... this weaver has been investigating the weaving done to produce the canvases painted on by the old masters. theartnewspaper.com/news/weaver-un…

We've all got some pretty elderly stash... but I think at 280 years old this is probably the oldest dye stuff that anyone will have used! northernlace.co.uk/2019/11/16/dye…
