I'm finally setting up to weave on my warp-weighted loom once again. We have a demo/event weekend coming up and I said I'd bring it. It was a wonderful draw to the public when I brought it to an art show that our medieval group was demonstrating at and it gives me that little push to get going.
The last project was a broken diamond twill which is complicated and time consuming even by WWLoom standards. This time I'm doing a check pattern in a basic tabby. It'll be simpler to weave but flashier in colour. Great for public display.
Eventhough I'd seen the trend of no tablet woven starter band during the medieval ages I find it's the best for spacing and my persona is 7th century Irish Celt so I have no proof either way if a WWLoom was used let alone a starter band, so what the heck.
I'm trying to decide how much I want to do ahead of time. I really need to go through my notes so I can set up a talk during the weekend. A combination of function and history I think will work best to keep attention of the public and our members.
