Well Hello There! Long time no see!
I’ve been on the slow road to learning a new weave structure: bound weave. New to me, that is. Like so many other facets of weaving, this one’s been around for a long while.
Used mainly for rugs, saddle blankets, and other such items, it’s a thickly woven structure that really eats up the yarn while providing a super-strong durable textile.
I started out with a couple of small pieces, then recently jumped onto the Rio Grande loom out at Beryl Warnes’ Academy of Handweaving in Santa Ysabel.
Here’s one: stay tuned for more….and thanks for checking in!
Be well and happy — enjoy!
