  • Band Weaving 101
    Band Weaving 101 Universal Weaving Vocabulary warp - The “vertical” threads which form the framework that the weaving takes place on. weft - the “horizontal” threads that are woven over and under the warp threads. shuttle - device usually a wooden stick used to hold the weft thread depending on the type of weaving and the loom, the shuttle may also be used to “beat” the weft into place. For weaving bands a belt shuttle usually works best. It has a blade or knife edge on at least 1 side for beating. shed - the opening created by raising or lowering various warp threads through which the shuttle is passed. warp-faced weave - the warp threads are the only visible threads in the finished fabric. The weft threads are beaten into the center of the fabric and are not visible except perhaps at the selvedge. The pattern design is made solely with the warp threads. Shed Stick: a stick often with strings tied to specific warp threads and used to raise warp threads so that the shuttle can be passed beneath the warp threads in order to create a specific weave structure or a pattern. Heddle - A wire, string or wood device in which the warp threads are threaded through so that they can be raised or lowered according to a pattern. Rigid Heddle: A harness like device in which specific warp threads are threaded through the center and between sticks or threads so that only certain warp threads can be raised or lowered to create a shed for the shuttle to pass through.

Due to his sensitivity, social commitment, and political engagement, his poetry delineates ecological spoliation, political marginalization, economic dispossession and the denigration of Niger Delta people. In addition to this role of the poet as a social critic, he proffers solutions to the problems that plague his society, especially his native Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Hence, this interdisciplinary paper examines the poet’s warning against laziness and senseless violence and the need for the youths to attain economic empowerment and financial independence through individual creativity, talent and skill. It pays particular attention to the poet’s portraiture of the loom and the significance of clothes and clothing materials, using inkle weaving as a creative art that can promote wealth and job creation, thereby minimizing poverty, discontent, unrest and violence in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Inkle weaving is an ancient hand manipulative art.

  • The Inkle Loom Is Threaded with the Warp Threads According to the Weaver's Design
    INTRODUCTION TO INKLE LOOM WEAVING What you need Loom, threads, shuttle How it works: The inkle loom is threaded with the warp threads according to the weaver's design. There is alternance between yarn that that can be raised and lowered, and yarn that remains in the same “plan” through the use of the heddles. The raising and lowering of these warp threads creates the shed through which the weft thread will be carried on a shuttle. The weaver passes with the shuttle with each opening of a shed through pulling up and then lowering of threads. A simple raising and lowering of threads creates a plain-weave band in which warp threads are slightly offset (see the effect on pattern). The weft threads are only visible at the edges of the band and will be less visible if the sides of the band have the same color/fiber. As the weaving progresses, the warp threads will shorten on the loom and the weaver will need to adjust the tension periodically. As the inkle band progresses, it will also get closer to the heddles. You will need to slide the warp thread toward the bottom of the loom to recreate more weaving space. The easiest way to do so is to reduce the tension when you are ready to advance the warp. Once you have done so, tighten the tension again and restart weaving. For both of these reasons, a good inkle loom should allow for easy adjusting of the tension! NB: choice of fibers! NB2: common problems. Some can be prevented, some can be solved, some are really bad.

    Materials for Inkle Weaving Inkle weaving on the loom we know is a rather modern invention. It was patented in the 1930s. Inkle refers to a narrow woven band, examples of which can be found throughout history. EJW Barber describes the history of such woven bands starting 4000 years ago (Barber, 2002). The term inkle is mentioned in household inventories and by Shakespeare, with various spellings. Reference is made to “pieces of white uncle for girdles and lates (laces) were purchased for 7d” and one penny was paid for “whyte incle to make synes in books”, both in the 14th century (Verberg, 2017). Shakespeare mentions inkle in 3 of his works (DeGarmo, 2005) Inkle loom String for weaving: I recommend cotton to start because you will avoid the conflict of felting ​ fibers as with wool, and it is less expensive than bamboo or silk. Choose how thick you want the string - cotton yarn, crochet thread, tatting thread You will want at least two colors. The number of balls or skeins will be determined by how long or wide you want the finished piece. I recommend starting with at least 2 of each color. String for heddles: I recommend a thicker cotton string ​ Shuttle Scissors Weaving 1. Heddles 2. Heddle bar 3. Shed 4. Shuttle 5. Tension bar 6. Warp thread 7. Weft thread (Credit: Graphic Enterprises. graphicenterprises.net/hhtml/inkle_loom.html) Heddles (1) are made by tying the heddle thread in a loop from the heddle bar (2) to the top peg of the loom (just above 6). These are used to hold every other warp thread in a steady position.
