Tablet-woven Scarves

[Gauze weave scarf with space-dyed warps] [Tablet-woven scarf in gauze weave with a weft after every two turns] Scarves -- soft and wooly for winter, light and lacy for summer -- can be woven with tablets. No loom is needed. This is a practical application of the idea of using a reed scrap to space out the warps and control the sett. In this two- or three-day workshop, we will focus on two structures -- gauze weave and warp twining. You will weave samplers and a narrow scarf of your own in class. You'll be surprised at the luscious fabrics you can create with tablets and a reed! You can find my article "Tablet-Woven Gauze Scarves" in Weaver's, Spring 1999, p. 64-65.

Students must know how to make a continuous warp, understand the basics of warp twining, and have some familiarity with the concept of "Spaced - Out Tablet Warps".
