Leno Lace Method

Leno lace method is one way to add interest to your weaving. First you need to leave spaces on your weaving. Here is how

First starting from the left at the bottom loop your yarn around three instead of one nails

See the little opening below in the weaving.

 

 

Take the yarn across and skip two nails on the right. See the two skipped nails below.

 

Now take the yarn to the top and skip one nail.

When you go back to the left you need to also skip one nail. Your left side will look like the picture below.
 
You continue weaving and fill your spaces in later. You will need a locker hook.. A crochet hook with a needle eye at the end.

Back to weaving

It's been a long time.. But I have been busy playing on my looms. This one is almost done      

Weaving For Relaxation

With all of the nasty viruses going around, weaving can be a great source of relaxation.  Whether you are doing rigid heddle weaving, continuous strand weaving or floor loom weaving.   It is a great way to express yourself and escape. Our craft can join and connect people in a common interest.   The sense of community that comes from sharing weaving can bridge a great many differences .Working with ones hands can bring great joy.    The joy and community are also elements of life that promote health.   I try to spend some time every day on my craft.   Sometimes it is weaving, sometimes it is spinning yarn and most recently I am learning to sew. (Oh the ideas for the fabric)

Finally finishing my shawl

I must confess I have had this shawl on my Triloom for some time... Now I am in the home from of finishing. I am trying to decide on a yarn for the border. I saw my Triloom teacher today. She does incredible stuff with a Triloom...I would love to be as talented as she is.
