janet dawson weaving overshot brands

Overshot is known as a coverlet structure, but it’s also ideal for placemats, runners, blankets, fashion accessories, table linens, rugs, and much more. Just about anything you want to weave can be done in overshot.

Our class project is a series of coordinated placemats and table runners, woven in inexpensive, easy to get materials you may already have in your stash. You’ll choose from three different threadings composed of classic overshot motifs, then treadle them in star fashion, rose fashion, and many other ways.

Don’t feel like weaving placemats, runners, OR samples, or don’t have a loom available? No problem! You can still participate in the class without weaving at all. The lessons, videos, Q&As, and pen and paper exercises will help cement your understanding of overshot even if you don’t take it to the loom right away.

Don’t have that kind of loom? No worries! You can still read, watch, listen, and do all the pen and paper exercises. Your deeper understanding of overshot will be beneficial when you do have a loom to use it on or decide to explore how to weave it on the loom you already have on your own.

Our departure gate is a traditional overshot threading and our first stops in Week One are the most common variations on the overshot theme: closely related to standard overshot with just a little change here or a little change there.

In Weeks Two through Four we"ll venture farther and farther; by the end of our four week journey, your fabric won’t resemble overshot in the slightest. All without rethreading, resleying or even cutting off -- unless you’re too anxious to see your samples to wait!

this is the first warp I have done with cotton and I really worked on my technique with out improving this concern. My selvages are better and my weaving is smoother but every so often I skip warp threads.. irregular threads and irregular times, but mostly in the middle third of my warp.

It happens in the weaving sweet spot, just after I advance or later, on either shed…. and didn’t happen in the past when I used an acrylic/ cotton warp with more stretch……..Arrrrrgh.*#!,

BTW… weaving on an old Fanny counterbalance and have reviewed my loom set up. Planning to get some new treadle cords. It otherwise looks well balanced and level after reviewing Jane’s video on her Fanny.

I’ve spent countless hours poring over color theory and weaving books, then woven hundreds of swatches and dyed over 2500 yarn samples in my quest to understand color in weaving.

I’ve had my work in museum collections and featured on the cover of Handwoven; now my life’s goal is to give back to the weaving community, teaching others how to perfect weaving with color.

I’m good at math and patterns and also really good with words. According to the thousands of people I’ve taught both in person and in my online Floor Loom Weaving class on Craftsy, this combination is my superpower: I not only get this stuff, I explain it well and write about it clearly.

Great news, as helping others understand and enjoy all the parts of weaving – project planning and loom prep as well throwing the shuttle – is my favourite part of the whole business. (And I love cats more than Tien does!)

I’ve been playing with deflected doubleweave for the first time, as the Weaving Study Group recently chose this structure for extended study. Found a 4-shaft scarf draft on Gist Yarns. I altered the block proportions a bit and threw in some color blends in both warp and weft. I had wound a short warp just for casual sampling, but I liked the developing color effects enough to keep weaving for 34 inches. So I have a short neck scarf that I can clasp with a pin, or possibly seam into a cowl.

I am in exactly the same space as you are in regard to weaving! For years, I crocheted and dabbled in knitting, did the quilt thing which led to focusing on handbags and wallets but back in 2012 or so discovered weaving, specifically rigid heddle weaving. I love the on-line community I found (Liz Gipson and her Yarnworker School!) and quickly added floor loom weaving to the mix. I’ve been taking the color courses and overshot classes with Tien Chui and Janet Dawson, belong to Jane Stafford’s online guild and enjoy them tremendously! I find myself,, however, looking for that same type of rigid heddle community in the floor loom world. Just how you described having people generally at the same level learning something new all at the same time. It’s why I had signed up for the twill gamp weavealong with you. I’m also in that space where I want to explore more fully the design aspect and am just making my first very tentative baby steps into that world as well. I’m retiring from my day job in a few months (clinical director and speech therapy department supervisor) and will, hopefully, have more time to focus on making cloth to make things! I would definitely be interested in a stand alone weaving YouTube channel when that could become a reality! I’m interested in all things fiber, but my happy place is currently in the weaving end
