Pre-christmas Tablet Weavng




Just before Christnas I warped up my inkle loom following a tablet weaving diagram for a row of Christmas Trees - not really expecting to get it right... but I did!

I can't find the link at the moment but I'll add it to this page when I can.

Tonight I took out Hannah's braid - even though it still looks in perfect condition :-) Tomorrow she is going to be the first to properly try a removable braid.

Instructions said you should cut lengths of thread 3 x the length of the finshed cordyou want....  1 wanted around 80cm, so used 240cm of each thread - and I have loads left over 😁... and the cord is longer than I planned (I may end up undoing a little to make the cord shorter... but we'll see! Ta da... Sara  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
