This video shows how to use the Sunna heddle from www.stoorstalka...
This heddle is designed to make the weaving of patterned bands easier to learn and quicker to do. The pattern I am weaving is a lovely knot design - not a traditional Sámi band pattern. The wool yarn is from www.artyarn.co.uk/
The books Sámi Band Weaving and Woven Bands from Sweden are available from www.blurb.com/ They are also available as Ebooks, Apple iPad format.
See my blog at durhamweaver64....
My latest book is published by Schiffer Press 2018 Weaving Patterned Bands how to create and design with 5, 7, and 9 pattern threads. It is available from Amazon and craft outlets.
Happy weaving.
Displays excellent understanding of what makes a successful instructional video for procedural learning: thr. speaks only what needs to be said; no distracting chatter or music; labels her actions with a little "chant" when working: "pick up one, over two, pick up one, over two..." I hope she presents other small lessons. This is superb teaching.
Oh my goodness! I have watched so many RUclips videos trying to learn weaving and I have to say you make it sound so simple. I crochet, knit, work with clay and just about anything I can get my hand's on and now I can't wait to add this to one of my new hobbies. Thank you so much.
Best demonstration and verbal instruction I've seen so far
This is such a lovely demonstration. As a result of this video I bought the heddle and two of the shuttles. I have tried to do these kinds of bands before and was nothing but frustrated.... so thank you!
this was extremely useful in showing me how weaving works and I now want to pick it up. thank you!
So glad you enjoyed my video. Do check out my blog at durhamweaver64.blogspot.com/
happy weaving

Yes all the pattern threads go through the top row of holes on the heddle. The background threads and the border threads are threaded alternately through the long slots and holes. I have a RUclips video on Threading the rigid heddle for narrow band weaving which may help but it is for the Baltic style weave structure like the Sunna heddle. You can weave the bands using a doubled holed heddle but the pattern may not be as crisp. I am running an online workshop with the Yahoo discussion group Braids and Bands in March. I will be covering the double holed heddle as well as the Sunna heddle. Check the web site for The Braid Society.
I have recently learned about this type of weaving and love it! I have a 3d printer and used that to print a heddle and shuttle. Your blog was very helpful for learning to warp and the videos give a lot more little details that are needed to get better results!
Thank you. I am sure that you will enjoy learning to weave with this very useful heddle.
Great demonstration! Not sure yet whether I'll buy/make a Sunna heddle, but I will steal the idea of the width template! Thanks a lot!
the absolute best instructional video on the subject I have viewed. Beautiful clear voice and instructions and very good camera work. Thank you 😺
Thank you. I am pleased that you have found the video useful.
Love the heddle.
Oh this looks like such fun.... you make it look easy....
I am so pleased you enjoyed the video.
this is an incredible tutorial. Thank you so much! so generous.
Yes , you can use the Stoorstalka Sunna heddle to weave the bands in my books. I am running an online tutorial about band weaving for the Braid society which starts in March on the yahoo discussion group Braids and Bands. To join in you need to register on the Braid Society web site. The group and the workshop are free to join. There will be many more patterns to weave with this double slotted heddle. Susan J Foulkes
.The online workshop with the Yahoo group Braids and Bands started yesterday.
Here is a lovely video from the Skansen museum in Sweden. It is in Swedish but the visuals are clear. There is a particularly good section on making a warp around two chairs. Slöjda med Skansen: Bandvävning ruclips.net/video/jPeBqxW6ZUw/видео.html
and also how would I go about threading the heddle
thanks
Nice clear directions, thank you.
This is lovely! Unfortunately, I have only one working hand (and that only barely). Do you know of any adaptations?
Thank you Susan
en donde puedo conseguir el liso pues estoy muy interesada vivo en Bogota colombia yo trabajo esta tecnica en telar vertical con dos colores pero me parece mas facil esta tecnica muchas gracias
Hi Felicity. Can you use a rigid heddle loom? If you can, it can be adapted to use a Sunna double slotted heddle. I will be posting some pictures on my blog later in July to show how one weaver adapted his loom. durhamweaver64.blogspot.co.uk/
I hope it will help.
Susan
Por favor, subtítulos en Español. Gracias!
Brilliant! on point! bravo! thank you very much!!! love:)
I have followed your Blog and RUclips channel for a few years now and because of your information, I band weave using both the Sunni and Sigga heddles. Can you tell me please where the pattern you use in this video is from and how I might get a copy? Thank you so much for all your instruction over the years. Best Wishes from Nova Scotia, Canada

Hello susan I have a double hole rigid heddle can I weaving the patterns in your book with it. with looking at other videos on you tube just to see if I am right would all the pattern threads go into the top holes? I just love your books have two of them
thank you
I love the look of this for making mochila straps. Where can I buy a heddle loom from?
The Sunna heddle is sold by Stoorstalka who will ship world-wide. shop.stoorstalka.com/sv/start.html If you are in the USA/Canada they had a dedicated web page for orders.
If you are in the UK then the Handweavers Studio in London also supply double slotted heddle.
happy weaving

Hello 👋 I am wanting to purchase a heddle that will carry me through most levels. Can I purchase a 9 thread heddle and use it for 5 and 7 thread patterns? Or are the heddles specific to each thread count pattern?
Hi. A 9 pattern thread heddle will weave 5 and 7 pattern thread patterns. My book Weaving Patterned Bands gives all the threading instructions and over 140 patterns for you to try. It is published by Schiffer and available on Amazon.
Enjoy your weaving
Susan
Hi, Thanks for the excellent instructions. Please could you tell me would the sunna heddle fit DK yarn?
Hi Crank Yes dk yarn will fit. The holes on the heddle are small but the yarn can be threaded with the plastic threader supplied with the heddle.
@@durhamsilkweaver Thanks so much :)
@@durhamsilkweaver Can I trouble you with one more question please? :)
I want to make a strap/band about 2" wide. So I was thinking of buying the largest(17 pattern slots) sunna heddle - (maybe the 13 would be big enough with dk wool?) I am assuming that I don't need to use all the pattern slots but can use as many as my pattern demands. Is this correct? Thanks
There is another excellent video showing a different method of weaving with the double holed heddle. Weaving on a Sami two holed heddle loom. ruclips.net/video/7GbJHJUOGAM/видео.html
You may find this more useful than my video.
I would like to take this workshop . have you ever done online classes with Weavolution web site ? they do pre recorded classes and also live classes I like pre recorded better
Is there any possibility to get the pattern for the celtic knot you are weaving in this video?
I bought your book, but it´s not in it.
Would you send it to my? Can I buy it?
I will post the pattern for this knot in my blog later in July. It is a lovely interlaced effect.
Happy Weaving Susan
That would be amazing! Can´t wait for it. :-)
Where can I find the Celtic knot draft that you are weaving?
Hi I did post a pattern of one of the designs on my blog. Here is the address. durhamweaver64.blogspot.com/2016/07/celtic-art.html
enjoy your weaving

Hi Susan just watch the video from Sweden. Making warp around two chairs this is great. I also just got a sunna heddle from stoorstalka online store cant wait to receive it and this can be used with your books pattern?
Где же взять такое бёрдышко?
Your shuttle is so pretty. May I ask where you bought it? Great weaving!
The shuttle is the traditional shape used by Sami weavers. It can be purchased at
stoorstalka.com/
Stoorstalka have a dedicated site for the USA and Norway. They are based in Sweden and ship worldwide.
I have found the shuttle an excellent shape for weaving pick up bands.
