School of Weaving Kit - s04e05 Large Threadings Twill Gamp

In Episode 5 we look at large threadings. When these threadings are repeated, they create stunning results. To date we have looked at small threadings as base shapes but now we are going to use those shapes as profiles that we can overlay with other threading concepts…. it really is simple once you break it all down and then build it up again. So much fun. So many possibilities.

Things we will learn:

• • • Larger threading combinations

    • Unit substitutions from profiles

    • Using undulating twills

    • Ideas around framing

    • Networking from profiles
