MATERIALS AND NEED TO KNOW-
The direct warping method is used for this project.
If you are a new weaver or are unsure when it comes to warping, I recommend my Beginner’s Rigid Heddle Weaving Class.
Woe to Go – Beginner’s Rigid Heddle Weaving Class
What you need:
*Rigid heddle loom 10” weaving width or wider
*1 x 7.5 or 8 dent heddle
*Reed and threading hook
- * Sewing machine
- * Serger is handy but not a necessity
- * Tape measure, pins, sewing thread, needle & thread
- * Notebook measuring 5” x 7”
- * Commercial lining fabric (I used a lightweight cotton in black), approx 15 x 14” per notebook panel
Yarn:
Total Warp Length: Around 60” (2 notebook covers) Amount: Around 115 yards of light worsted/dk wool or cotton.
Weft: Various amounts of stash/ leftover yarn of any fibre and weight (though I’d recommend not to go over aran weight to avoid too much bulk).
Note:
* You will need to fully warp the width of your Sampleit loom (if using).
* Weave each panel approx. 17.5” long. The finished panels, off the loom should measure around 16 x 8”. Seam allowances are included in measurements.
