- I just love narrow band weaving! It's fast, it's simple, and it's part of my Baltic Heritage! This video will cover what it takes to get started with the Baltic style of band weaving. I will go over yarn selection, terms and materials you need. Then stay tuned for part 2: Setting Up and part 3: Weaving!

Thank you so much for doing this! Finally, something suitable for beginners.
Not sure what your ethnic heritage is specifically (my great grandparents emigrated here from Lithuania), but the Lithuanian Folk Art Institute is a fabulous resource. As a member, I was able to download a pdf of the book Lithuanian Sashes, which is over 300 pages :D There are pages upon pages of digital sash images that could be used to make a pattern. I'm just starting out, so I'm not at the level. I was just super excited about it, lol
That's amazing! I am Estonian and Latvian, nice to meet you Baltic Sister! i will definitely check out the Institute thank you!
@@danaharrisseeger lovely to meet you, too! And, man, I’m already trying to figure out pattern making for tablet weaving because I want to replicate a sash from the 9th through the 11th century, lol. I’ve never even done tablet weaving 😅
Extremely interesting. Looking forward to part 2 . Thank you . Kind regards - Judi = Australia 😃
Thanks Judi!
Where did you get your loom? I love how you turn wrap the warp around the pice of wood. My daughteruses an inkle loom, but I really like yours better. Is there a brand or is it homemade?
I got it on Etsy! I have two different sizes- this is the narrower one and I have a wider one that holds 64 threads. Here’s the link: www.etsy.com/listing/220571995/beginners-rigid-heddle-loom-10-inch-rh?click_key=9e344c328b33cd1804753aa52d8d573dc79c45a2%3A220571995&click_sum=38e597a8&ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=narrow+band+loom&ref=sr_gallery-1-3&organic_search_click=1&frs=1&etp=1
Made by Oake and Ashe and very reasonably priced!
is this the 4 inch loom width that you are demonstrating on? How long can your band be reasonably with this loom?
This is the 4” version. I do a warp facing band so it ends up being more like 1” wide. You can make it as long as you want! Just make sure it’s all flat when you wind it around the wood support
Where can I get a loom
I found mine on Etsy.com- search for narrow band loom
Очень интересное видео и подробный рассказ.

@@danaharrisseeger Спасибо.
Посмотрел. В нашем регионе таких нет. Проще сделать своими руками. Ничего сложного.
