This is the companion video to the one on spot lace. It shows how you can take your weaving further by using surface embroidery techniques. Easy to follow, easy to do but visually stunning!

5/1 spot lace on a rigid heddle loom
I’m doing well with the videos this week! This one is for 5/1 spot lace and is a companion video for another new one on surface embroidery. Enjoy!
Krokbragd Tulips on a rigid heddle loom
Another video I just finished, still on the krokbragd theme but this time weaving some cool tulips!
I’m having so much fun experimenting with krokbragd, there are just so many possibilities š
Beginner’s Krokbragd
My newest video is on krokbragd for beginners. It’s not the best video I’ve made – it was late, it was hot and I was tired. But I think it’s passable, I hope you think so too!
How to make a heddle rod on a rigid heddle loom
My newest video is ready for viewing! It is a tutorial on how to make a heddle rod, which makes weaving with more than one pick up stick on the rigid heddle loom so much easier!
Clasped weft table runner
More of a table centre piece, it doesn’t quite have the length of a runner. This is the piece I wove for my recent rigid heddle clasped weft video tutorial.
I dyed the cottons specifically for this project. I wanted a good contrast between the variegated rainbow and the blues.
I love the clasped weft technique, the finished product and the process of randomly incorporating lengths of colour.
I hemstitched whilst on the loom so that the piece would sit flat on the table.
If you like this piece as much as I do it is available to purchase in my Etsy shop. And if you want to give the technique a go yourself please take the time to watch my video, it’s not as scary as it looks!
