All things Weaving

Weaving is an ancient artisan form whether out of necessity or for pure decoration. Warp and weft are vital to all textiles, and how they are constructed.  I will be adding to this page over the coming month with necessary vocabulary and quality links to tutorials.

Monday we begin with paper weaving and simple card and frame loom weaving and then we move into tapestry, and then our cricket looms:-) It will promise to be a fun month.

A rather great article with linked resources that incorporate Indigenous ways of Knowing, Math and Weaving  – check out this article by  Professor, Simon Fraser University

Indigenous basket-weaving makes an excellent digital math lesson 

Here is a link to a study about hand weaving – with links to nalbinding stitching as well:  https://muse.jhu.edu/chapter/52665/pdf
