So far, one type of pickup stands out as my favorite way to create fancy patterns. It is most commonly know these days as "Baltic-Style" pickup. I learned it back in the 1970's from Helene Bress' book, Inkle Weaving. She refers to it as "Basketweave Background". Evelyn Neher in her book, Inkle, calls it "Speckled" the term which I have adopted and used over the years. It is also sometimes called, supplementary warp technique, European, Latvian, Scandinavian or Sami pickup. So many names, such a great technique! #1 Turquoise and red pattern/ brown and tan background/ pick and drop/ pattern in border/ tan weft shows in brown background area. At the bottom of the page, I'll give you a threading chart for setting up your loom to weave this technique and a helpful link to a tutorial on how to chart patterns and do the picking. The term "pickup" could be a bit misleading, since often it is necessary to pick AND drop threads out of their normal sequence. These patterns look different on the front and back sides. Some photos here show both sides. Click on photos to enlarge them and see more details. Here are some cool variations that you can use with this technique. Examples are given on this page for most of them: Pick only OR pick and drop Single color background/ single color pattern Single color background/ multiple color pattern [See #3, #4, #12] Multiple color background/ single color pattern [See #8, #10] Multiple color background/ multiple color pattern [See #1] For pick and drop patterns -same color weft (will not show) OR contrasting weft (will show as spots where the weft is dropped) [See #1, #13 for contrasting weft] Plain borders to help accentuate the pickup design OR other patterns in the border areas Continuous pattern along the length of the band OR individual motifs with plain weave in between [See #7 for motifs with plain weave in between] Several pattern motifs can be mixed, mingled or varied along the length of the band, change it up as you go [See #14 for alternating small and large diamond motifs] Pattern area can be small OR the entire width of the band Pattern area can be centered OR off to one side Lettering/ words can be incorporated [See link at bottom of page] #2 Red background/ Brown pattern/ pick and drop /pattern in border/ same color weft The pattern at each end is different from that of the central portion of the band. #3 White background/ three colors in pattern/ pick only/ plain borders #4 Tan background/ three colors in pattern/ pick only/ pattern in border #5 Two color background/ one color pattern/ pick and drop/ same color weft/ plain borders. Brown zig-zag line is where pattern threads were dropped, gold zig-zag line is where pattern threads were picked. Background has contrasting color stripe up the center. #6 Black background/ red pattern/ pick and drop/ same color weft/ single stripe in border #7 Maroon background/ pink pattern/ pick and drop/ patterned border/ same color weft/ area between motifs #8 Two color background/ single color pattern/ pickup only/ simple stripe border #9 Black background/ red pattern/ pickup only/ small pattern area with wide patterned border #10 Two color background/ single color pattern/ pick and drop/ asymmetrical landscape pattern #11 Yellow background/ red pattern/ pick and drop in asymmetrical pattern/ patterned border/ same color weft Unusual example as the red pattern threads were picked on one half of the band and dropped on the other. Photo shows back and front. #12 Dark green background/ two color pattern/ pick and drop/ same color weft #13 Single color background/ single color pattern/ pick and drop/ contrasting color weft/ border pattern #14 Single color pattern/ two color background/ pick only/ plain borders/ This one has diamond motifs which alternate between small and large versions. For this technique, there is always one pattern thread between two background threads. Here is a simple warping draft for a single color background/ single color pattern/ plain borders. If the pattern needs to be centered and symmetrical (typical for these types of patterns), there will be an odd number of pattern threads. For example in the draft below, there are 13 pattern threads, 7 in one row and 6 in the other. This is used in the very popular Celtic Knot pattern, for which you can find the pattern here, thanks to Tracy DeGarmo. In this blog post I shared two of my pickup designs with warping drafts and pickup pattern charts. Lady Edyth Miller of the Compleatly Dressed Anachronist Blog has done a fine job of describing how to chart the pickup pattern, how to read the chart and how to execute the technique here: http://edythmiller.blogspot.com/2014/02/baltic-style-pickup-inkle-weaving.html For weaving lettering See PDF tutorial from Anita Apinis-Herman HERE. Two books I would recommend are; Sami Band Weaving by Susan J. Foulkes And Norwegian Pick-Up Bandweaving by Heather Torgenrud
As you know, I'm always looking for new-to-me things to try with my weaving. And one of those techniques I've been admiring lately is the look of wrapped yarn. It adds a lot of texture and there is something really lovely about a mess of yarn spilling out of a structured wrap. You can see

I love Latvian Flower Bands. There's an out-of-print book called "Latviešu Jostas" (in English "Latvian Sashes, Belts and Bands") by Aleksandra Dzērvītis and Lilija Treimanis in Latvian and English where these band patterns are found. I learned how to weave a Latvian Flower Band from a wonderful "Winter Belt WAL" (weave along) in the Knit Like a Latvian Ravelry group, which was so interesting, educational, inspirational, and so much fun. They are really fun to weave. Here's the Latvian flower band I'm working on now. It's #10 from the Latviesu Jostas book. The yarn is size 3/2 weaving cotton from Webs. The pattern threads are doubled. The "flowers" are the red flowers in the center of the band and the yellow flowers with the red center alongside the center. The center of the flower will have the same color as the weft thread that you use, which is usually the same color as the selvage threads. So, my flowers all have red centers. The traditional colors of Latvian bands are red, yellow, blue, and green. Above and below the flowers are doubled threads, or heavier threads, which help decorate the band. Here's a close-up of the flowers: To weave a Latvian band, you pick up the doubled pattern threads, weave 2 shots of tabby, and then push down the doubled threads, and again weave 2 shots of tabby, and repeat these 6 rows. With this band, the flowers aren't side by side--they alternate across the band. So, for a pattern row, you pick up one set of doubled threads and also push down the other set of pattern threads, and vice versa for the other pattern thread. Here's a picture of the band on my Schacht inkle loom. The shuttle on the right is from Stoorstalka. It's very handy for picking up threads. Next time I'll wrap my weft threads around it and use it for weaving. The small shuttle has a really nice edge. It's from Buckmaster Family Farms. I got it from them at the Middle Tennessee Fiber Festival. My notes: Red flower center: red, red, double yellow, red, double yellow, red, red. (red flower, red center) Yellow flower: yellow, yellow, double blue, yellow, double blue, yellow, yellow. (yellow flower, red center) Another Yellow flower: yellow, yellow, double green, yellow, double green, yellow, yellow. (yellow flower, red center)

It seemed befitting that an educational center for traditional arts and crafts be situated next to Seolleung, a king's tomb. The tomb houses the remains of the Joseon Kingdom's 9th ruler, King Seongjong, and his second wife Jeonghyeonwanghu. Han Sang-soo, traditional Korean embroiderer was there Tuesday as a teacher overseeing students enrolled in an eight-week program. But Han, 81, is the country’s Important Intangible Cultural Property in Korean embroidery, known for her singular match of colors and almost modern sewing that makes her work seem alive. "That's because we use a lot of inner stitching to portray the highs and lows," she explained in an interview at the center in Samseong-dong, southern Seoul. Han said she wants to keep the interview short as she wants to concentrate on her future plans. But once she starts talking, her passion and energy were evident; even as she sped through her 60 plus years as an embroiderer, the interview lasted for nearly two hours. What caught the eyes as she spoke were her pretty and long-nailed fingers, and her hands that were surprisingly soft. "Needlework doesn't ruin your hands," said Han. "These nails are to help me arrange a line or a fold when I sew," said Han.

I felt that January should be a month that was eased into. Slowly and surely. The days have mainly be cold, wet and very grey. We have been given the brief gift of a day of sunshine and mildness.....like today, and I have been making the most of those.....OH YES I HAVE. The sun and the moon. Two of the most beautiful constants of any day. It has been the month of the start of some upheaval. A new kitchen is being planned. I've made do with a kitchen that was inherited when we moved in. It was in decent enough condition, so it just got a revamp. But over the last couple of years it has really started to show its age, and repairs became unrepairable. As much as it has been exciting thinking that I will soon have drawers that open properly and cupboards that shut properly, I have not been looking forward to the chaos that will come with it. Funds do not allow someone to just come in, wave their magic wand and me not worry about all the nitty gritty stuff. And oh how the nitty gritty is time consuming. But I always enjoy making something come together on a modest budget. I like the challenge. So, January so far has seen me pulling out appliances to check walls. Nothing is ever straight forward is it? Cupboards are being sorted and I am trying REALLY hard to get rid of useless stuff. It's difficult, I am a hoarder and I am drawn to kitchen stuff like a big old magnet. I absolutely LOATHE wasting food, and was happily surprised there were only a few cans lurking that were past their sell by dates! phew! Sorting out the kitchen disrupts all the other rooms too as it all spills out. It's hard already to make my word of 2014 stand out! SIMPLE is not a word I would use at the moment! However, I knew the chaos of stuff everywhere would leave my brain sore. So it was a month of soothing music. Music is massively important to me. I love to walk on my own, just so I can have my headphones plugged in and drift off into my own little world. I love being the only one home during the day so I can listen to what I want without distraction. I love being in the car by myself so I can listen to what I want without distraction. Different genres play to either create my mood, or reflect my mood. This month, soothing to calm me down in chaos. I'm a big fan of film scores. I don't think they ever get the credit that they truly deserve. Hans Zimmer is one really cool dude in my opinion and definitely on my list for fantasy dinner party invites! Yeah I know, I'm a bit sad! iTunes Playlist for January 1. Shepherd Moons - Enya 2. Now We Are Free - Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard (The Gladiator) 3. Chevaliers De Sangreal - Hans Zimmer (The Davinci Code) 4. Big My Secret - Michael Nyman (The Piano) 5. Gumption - Hans Zimmer (The Holiday) 6. A Wild and Distant Shore - Michael Nyman (The Piano) 7. Maestro - Hans Zimmer (The Holiday) 8. Gortoz a Ran - Hans Zimmer/Denez Prigent (Black Hawk Down) 9. Flow Like Water - James Newton Howard (The Last Airbender) 10. None Of Them Are You - Thomas Newman (The Adjustment Bureau) (I know it's of no real interest to any of you reading this, but it's just for my records really. To remind myself what it was that was part of me at a certain time in my life) Ahhhhhhh these were just the best to soothe me, yet uplift me. Nothing beats the treat of a lonesome coffee shop visit where I can sip a latte, read a little, listen to Gumption and Maestro and completely forget about the mess at home. I loved the film (I'm a soppy chick flick watcher) and these two pieces always lift my spirits and make me feel incredibly happy and sunshiny. A Wild and Distant Shore, well got to be listened to on a wet and windy grey day walk. Chevaliers De Sangreal, Now We Are Free and Flow Like Water are ones to stop where you are, close your eyes and just enjoy. Actually i'm listening to 'Flow Like Water' as I type and it's just taking my breath away and sending shivers down my spine. I have such a weakness for violin and cello. The sun is streaming in through my windows and I keep just closing my eyes and facing towards it........smiling softly. Oh Sun, sweet Sun, keep shining for thee. Your warmth on my face is greatly appreciated...... I have felt relaxed, soothed, and happy.....despite chaos. I have taken delight in little pleasures such as new hyacinths to replaces my christmas flowered ones. My geraniums are doing okay in the house...oh how I love geraniums. My yarn stash is looking delicious to me at the moment, and it's a REAL struggle not to start something new and get my wip's out of the way first. It's all about the pastels to help soothe my wired brain. It will be nice to get back into the crafty swing as that has sort of dropped to the wayside. So I guess, although 'Simple' has seemed a little buried this month so far, I have tried, and succeeded to make it as nice as it possibly could be! I'm ready for what the rest of January holds and looking forward into February too. I want to see those lovely little daffodil bulbs poke their mighty heads through the cold ground........ and maybe, just maybe, there may be some finished projects may be in sight...... Until then....... xxx
As a beginning crocheter, I was mystified by all there is to know about yarn and craft supplies. My stash was exclusively Red Heart yarn and cheap-o wooden hooks from Amazon (don’t judge me!). Over the years, I’ve expanded my horizons and even played around with lighter-weight yarns that are rarely advertised to us crocheters. […]

If you ask a thousand knitters what are the best knitting needles to use, you'll get a thousand different answers. It may feel like every other knitter in the world is conspiring against you by leading you in all different directions, but the reason for this simply comes down to human nature: we are all beautifully complex creatures with different needs and preferences, and those needs and preferences bring us to different knitting needles. While other people can't say the best knitting needles to use for your personal preferences, different factors can certainly help guide your needle purchases, such as your knitting skill level, your fiber preferences, your current project, and your tension. With all these variables in mind, read on for our recommendations for needle types, shapes, and materials.
If you think you need special equipment to learn how to weave, you're wrong! Use things you have at home to make your first loom, just like I did back in the summer of 2015. I taught myself how to weave on a DIY cardboard loom and I got hooked! I want to share some of my favourite techniques and tricks with you.
Meet my family of inkle looms! Ashford Inklette- The cutest of inkle looms. I like this one because it is small enough to fit easily on my lap and can be held between my knees. I can even weave while riding in a car. Because of it's petite size, there is not a lot of clearance and it feels awkward for my hands to work within such a small space and narrow shed opening. Also, I am used to using a lot of tension and am always careful not to use too much tension on this one because it is more petite. But I find it nice for weaving really narrow things like the silk ribbon and stampede straps that I have been making. I have a small child's suitcase on wheels which just fits this and makes it a dream for traveling. Schacht- I have 3 of these. This loom is perfectly configured for ease of weaving, in my opinion. I much prefer the slide type tensioner of this loom to the paddle type of the Inklette. I also prefer the tensioner to be in front as this allows for the easiest of adjustments. The spacing of the uprights suits me; it has just the right length between me and the heddles for weaving. (Too long and my back gets tired of reaching, too short and I have to advance the warp too often.) Northwest- Beautifully crafted of walnut. This one is constructed much like the Schacht, with a couple of differences. It has a second side to the frame, which is removable. This makes it so convenient for taking to shows and demonstrations. The second side keeps warps from slipping off the ends of the pegs while I am toting it around. It also allows me to work wider without constantly herding the warps away from the edge and it provides that extra support and stability for those who use a lot of tension, like me. The front upright angles forward a little more than the Schacht, which creates a shorter weaving distance and it is necessary to advance the warp more often. Homemade- (Shown here with the Schacht for size comparison.) You could weave all week on this baby. I once made a sash 14' long on it, and I don't think that I used it's full capacity. If you are going for yardage, this would be the best choice. It stands on the floor and I find that I am most comfortable tipping it forward onto my lap to work. When I get a really long warp on it, the process of advancing the warp is a challenge. Makes me wish I had more arms. My brilliant husband pointed out that it would have been nice to have something for scale in each photo. I wish I would have thought of that. Other looms have come and gone from my life. This is the current collection and as you can see, each serves a purpose. There are a couple more that I have a hankering to own, though. There are so many varieties of inkle looms available; a recent brief search of the web turned up many small manufacturers. It would be fun to test them all! The beauty of the inkle loom above all others, I think is the ease of setup. A continuous warp wound directly onto the loom eliminates the step of preparing the warp. (If an inkle loom has two sides, one of them needs to be removable to accomplish this.) I have tried a little tapestry weaving. I also own a perfectly beautiful Kromski Harp rigid heddle loom. But the truth is, I love inkle weaving and will always come back to it.

I've proposed a class in tablet weaving for our local OLLI. I don't know how the proposal will fare, but I'm having fun doing the research. Tablet weaving has been resident in my box of tricks for a long time....
I still receive questions on what to use as warp threads, and it's a really great question! The truth is you can use type of thread you want, which can lead to some really interesting creations. However if you're just starting out weaving, I like to recommend using a thin cotton thread for your warp.
