Have you ever tried to translate a taditional weaving pattern into words? Maybe something that we classify as aesthetically hides a big secret… 🤔😊
No I haven’t done that. I’ve had a look at making a draw down from a bell ringing bob, having read about the Kent Treble Bob Major in Dorothy L Sayers’ book The Nine Taylors.
However I’m not a weaver because, having enjoyed the preparations and started on the weaving several times, I become quickly bored with the actual throwing of the shuttle backwards and forwards. I seem to remember that the only piece I managed to finish was a double width cloth, because I had to concentrate to make sure that the double weave didn’t get fouled by picking up a warp thread from the wrong side of the double weave.
So I sold my loom and now I mainly felt.
