Don't ask me how, but the back of my hand would look like they had been in a cat fight. The wooden stretcher that I had was the worst one, I guess because the prongs were longer (it was sold as a rug temple) and protruded past the edges of the rug. I bought a roll of foam insulation that looked like a thin rod of grey foam. I cut 2 pieces of this foam and stuck them over the sharp prongs when the stretcher is on the web. After a whole lot of moving the stretcher forward, the foam would be too full of holes and not stay put. Then I discarded it and cut two new pieces. The roll lasted longer than the stretcher. I sold it with great relief when I found the Signe's Width Holder. I never scratched myself on the Signe Width Holder since the cords that attached the hooks to the side of the loom prevented me from doing whatever it was that I did with the other stretcher.

I distilled all the comments that people posted to the list, and decided that it was still worth trying b2f, and that I would wind 2 thin plus one thick together on the warping mill. On the whole, I'd say this worked pretty well, even tho both the chenille & the sewing thread are black (what *was* I thinking????). That said, I have to add that this warp was neither very long nor very wide. The more I got into the project, the more I thought that for once in my life, I really had to sample. So the warp is 5" wide and 2.5 yds long. I plan to make a bunch of samples, and then choose the one I like best to weave what I call a "suit scarf." This is a narrow rather short scarf designed to be worn as decoration with a woman's business suit. The wearer should be able to tuck it under the collar of the suit (if she wants) and the fringe should hang just about to the waist. I've woven these before (for sale) and people seem to like them. Beads on the fringe are particulary appropriate for this decorative scarf, and the sewing thread in the warp should make that easy to do. The sewing thread/chenille combo is doing just what I had hoped: the sewing thread is disappearing into the chenille, leaving me with just the pattern weft showing. I'm using Madelyn's updated T&T threading (1,2,P) rather than classic DPW. However, I don't like the selvedges, and will hang floating selvedges on both sides before I start weaving the scarf. Not surprisingly (with 2/3 of the threads on either shaft 1 or shaft 2), I'm having trouble with shafts drifting up. While I'm sampling & playing, I don't mind pushing them down, but if I'm going to use this structure on a regular basis, I'll have to rig a bar or something under shafts 1 & 2 to keep them down (and make them heavier to lift--ugh).

  • Cremation Grave Textiles Examples from Vendel Upper Class in the Vendel and Viking Periods
    Journal of Nordic Archaeological Science 13, pp. 59–74 (2002) Cremation grave textiles Examples from Vendel upper class in the Vendel and Viking Periods Anita Malmius Few are aware of the fact that organic material such as textiles and leather can survive in cremation graves. Even fewer are aware that charred textile fragments contain almost the same information as unburnt prehistoric textiles. This fact provides the opportunity for comparing textiles from different groups in society, for studying textile development, and for gaining access to a much greater textile material based on the numerous crema- tion graves. In this article the outfits of the men buried in the cremation graves in “Vendla’s Mound”, dated to the Vendel and Viking Periods, are compared with those buried in the contemporaneous boat-graves in Vendel.

The fertile soil, mild tempera- ture, and booming production of silk fabric and thread naturally nourished the burgeoning and flourishing of Suzhou embroidery. According to "Shuo Yuan", written by Liu Xiang during the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC - 24 AD), the country of Wu (current Suzhou area) has started to use embroidery to decorate garments over 2,000 years ago. As described in the book of "Secret Treasures of Qing," the Suzhou embroi- ders in Song Dynasty (960-1279) used "needles that could be as thin as the hair. During the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), Suzhou has become a thriving center for silk industries and handicrafts. Artists in Wu area, represented by Tang Yin (Bohu) and Shen Zhou, helped the further development of Suzhou embroidery. Embroiders reproduced their paintings using needles. These works were so vivid and elegant as to be called "paintings by needle" or "unmatch- able even by the nature." Since then, Suzhou embroidery evolved a style of its own in needle- work, color plan and pattern.

  • SHEDDING FAQ 1) A) for a 5 up 3 Down Twill Weave, the Crank Shaft
    SHEDDING FAQ 1) a) For a 5 up 3 down twill weave, the crank shaft, bottom shat and tappet shaft r.p.m. is X, Y and Z. Determine X: Y: Z. b) For a 4 up 2 down twill weave, the crank shaft, bottom shat and tappet shaft r.p.m. is X, Y and Z respectively. Determine X: Y: Z. 2) Why the lift of the back heald is more than that of front heald when the plain woven fabric is manufactured? Why the heald reversing rollers are having different diameters in a plain loom? 3) Calculate the lift of the cam controlling the back heald from the following particulars: Throw (lift) of the cam for the front heald = 10 cm The distance between the front and back heald = 2.5 cm The distance between the fulcrum and bowl on the treadle = 20 cm The distance between the bowl and the fastening point of the back heald = 20 cm Diameter of small reversing roller = 5 cm Diameter of large reversing roller = 6cm 4) What are early shedding and late shedding? What kind of shedding would be preferred for weaving the following i. Silk fabrics from filament yarns ii. Cotton fabric with very high areal density 5) Explain how the following profiles of shade depth are achieved with different shedding timing. Which profile will you choose for silk warp and why? 6) What is staggering of healds? How is it implemented in a loom with cam shedding mechanism? How warp breaks are reduced by this technique? 7) Derive the expression for strain in the warp yarn during the shedding operation if the total shed length is ‘L’, shed symmetry parameter is ‘i’ and vertical movement of the heald during shedding is ‘2h’.

  • Sett Decisions
    TRANSCRIPT Sett Decisions Before we begin weaving cloth, there is a bit of crucial information that we need that determines the feel and the function of the fabric, and that is sett. Sett is to weaving what gauge is to knitting. In knitting, you can take a yarn, say like a fingering weight yarn, and you can knit it on tiny, skinny needles to produce tiny, little stitches that will produce a very tight, firm fabric. That might be suitable for something like socks, like I knit my socks on 2.25 millimeter needles and I make a fabric that’s so firm and stiff that it can stand up like cardboard. You want that because that kind of fabric that is firm and stuff affords a certain kind of durability that you want for your socks. You may not want that kind of durability for any other garment that you’re gonna be wearing. So you can take that same fingering weight yarn and then knit it on much larger size needles and produce a larger stitch which then produces a loose, draped, soft fabric that is perfect for a shawl. It’s the same idea with weaving. Sett is kind of like gauge. Think about the range of fabrics that you could create with a loom. Think about a very firm, stiff, durable, tightly woven fabric. What would that be good for? That might be good for something like upholstery fabric something that needs a lot of durability. And think about something like the cloth that you wear in your shirt.

By employing the offset rocking shaft with less moment of inertia and a hollow reed holder, beating is well- balanced. Floor vibration can be reduced. ■ Clear shedding The beating stroke is shortened and the driving parts that are the most essential for the weaving machine to run at high speed are additionally reinforced. By placing the heald frame as close to the cloth fell as possible while keeping the shedding amount, the shedding angle is increased and defective shedding is reduced.
