School of Weaving Kit – s07e08 Turned Taquete

Things we will learn:

• How to turn a draft
• Turned Taquete is related to weft faced Summer and Winter
• The sett for your warp yarn is typically increased because you are making a warp predominant fabric
• sometimes warp shifting occurs and we will learn to deal with that
• D/L combinations provide your blocks
• you must shift the DL to LD wherever you want a block change just like log cabin
• on 4 shafts it has 2 easy-to-treadle blocks
• Turned Taquete is an awesome one-shuttle weave structure 🙂
• you can repeat your treadling units as many times as you want
• we can also weave the warp in plain weave (unbalanced), warp predominant Repp, or 2/2 Twill
• we can overlay these ideas on old canvases
• we can overlay ideas about division of space and repetitive sequence onto the structure.
