A small piece of weaving around a piece of card, with white horizontal threads and dark brown vertical threads forming a diamond pattern.
A bookcase with dowels screwed into the shelves to create a warping frame around which a dark brown yarn is wound again and again to make a warp for weaving.
#Weaving in progress for a #6thc #Saxon cloak to be worn by one of our #livinghistory experts at our multi period #reenactment in May.
First, a test square is woven in the broken diamond pattern then the warp made.
