Imagine being able to weave overshot along the length of your cloth with just one shuttle or being able to weave terry cloth towels for your bath. All this and more is possible on just four shafts by using a supplementary warp. Back by popular demand, this sought-after book hasn"t been available for a long time. The revised and expanded edition features nearly twice as many projects as the original book, with five all-new projects and a new weaving structure. Handweavers will learn weaving expert Deb Essen"s easy warping method, how to turn drafts for one-shuttle weaving, and Deb"s tips and techniques for warping a supplementary draft successfully. Once you have the warping down, weave any of the projects using the weave structures Deb teaches you. Each project explores a different supplemental warp structure, from turned overshot and monk"s belt to Bedford cord and even velvet. And no second back beam is required for your loom!

Weave structures often have specific threading and treadling patterns that are unique to that particular weave structure and not shared with others. This book takes you out of the traditional method of weaving overshot patterns by using different treadling techniques. This will include weaving overshot patterns as Summer/Winter, Italian manner, starburst, crackle, and petit point just to name a few. The basic image is maintained in each example but the design takes on a whole new look!

There’s more to overshot than coverlets, and delving into this book will go a long way to dispelling your fears and misconceptions of a structure that looks more complicated than it really is. The author offers an in-depth discussion of the threading, treading and tie-ups for overshot, along with ways to manage selvedges and create borders. Twenty two projects offer much to inspire.

Pattern is designed to use our Organic cottolin (Cotolin) to weave 4 placemats- finished size 14"X20", 4 napkins 14"X14" and a runner with a finished size 14"X38". Requires an 8 shaft loom, 24 epi, 15" wide. 1 tube each of our 4 Ruby Anniversary colors Vendor item: HYPattern

If you are like us, your dining room table doesn"t get a lot of use for dining. That doesn"t mean it shouldn"t look great when it"s not being used! This elegant overshot runner can show off your table but also do equally fine duty as a dresser scarf or accent anywhere you need a little color and pattern. The 8/2 Cottolin is sett at 20 epi in the warp and is also the tabby weft. The 100% wool Highland is the pattern weft. For the majority of the weaving, you will alternate picks of these two yarns, which creates a firm background fabric of cottolin with a three-dimensional pattern of Highland that decorates the surface. We made a point of picking two colors that were similar to each other to emphasize the difference in texture. The kit makes one table runner with finished dimensions of 19" x 44" plus fringe. It can be hand washed and air dried, with a brief tumble in the dryer to fluff the fabric.
