*Yarn for the sampler – I used an Australian 8ply (light worsted, dk) to warp the sampler. The weft was made with a variety weights. It’s all about trying new things!
Kelly – Three Heddle Adventures!
I will show you how to demistify weaving by using three heddles in this comprehensive course.
Step-by-step instructions are provided. We begin by weaving 6 variations of a twill sampler and end up with a complex twill scarf with M and W threading. These tips and tricks will make the process easy and enjoyable.
You can download printable PDFs to help you find the right information.
What you’ll need:
*A rigid heddle loom with at least 8″ weaving width
*3 heddles of the same dent to fit your loom(in the videos I use 7.5 dent heddles)
*A double heddle block
*Clamps for the third heddle (depending on your loom)
*A tapestry needle
*S hooks or similar for weighting the floating selvedges
