Pasamo... with passion
Skoro już mam pas do tkania, to zaczęłam go używać do tkania krajek. Bez mojego szanownego… dolnej części pleców wygląda tak:
Jest niesamowicie wygodny. A co najważniejsze łatwo i szybko można się przygotować do pracy. Jak zaczyna wołać gwizdek od czajnika, to też w kilka sekund można się uwolnić … zanim woda się przypali 😉
I'm just jumping from one YouTube video to another and I'm finding a ton of interesting stuff. Some phenomenally clever chick is showing the principles of weaving on a horizontal loom. I wish I had thought of those obvious solutions. Her method of setting up a half-harness is much simpler than the one I saw in Professor Turnau's book. A horizontal loom is a distant dream to me,…
Every now and then someone asks me how to weave. Sometimes it's just a little advice, sometimes someone wants to know how to start, and sometimes someone wants to know everything 🙂 You can find a lot of interesting information and videos on the Internet. However, there seems to be a lack of materials in Polish. I decided to write an instruction manual for those interested in weaving. It's done entirely my way, and since…
I once came across this interesting video – a clever weaving technique on an inkle loom that gives dizzying speed in the creation of a selvedge. I decided to try it on my workshop. A small widdle was made from a wooden pancake spatula. In the improved version, the handle is wrapped in a strap, because the edges – although not sharp – dug into my hands. The shuttle initially…
At the beginning of March in Poznań I will have the pleasure of leading a workshop on weaving selvedges on a bardek. Agnieszka Jackowiak is responsible for the organization. The course is cleverly divided into a basic and advanced stage. You will be able to learn how to weave both plain and patterned selvedges, the secrets of which so many people are curious about 🙂 I refer you to the Hobby-wełna website, where you can find out more details.
I wondered a bit what to write in the first "Sierakowski" post. The impressions after arrival have passed, so I will spare myself describing them... and what they have already heard 😉 The most important thing for me is weaving, so I will show off my new device. I cannot afford to hang the warp from window to window like I did in Krakow, so I wind it on a portable...
I planned to post some photos of my looms to illustrate the story of their creation, but uncle Google does such wonders with searches that I didn’t want to give him any more reasons to mix and match. People looking for information about looms and weaving might be horrified… I’ll just tell you that initially the looms consisted of a few joists, which were the subject of mockery by a certain Lord…

Wygląda wspaniale 🙂 Podziwiam Twoje krajki i kiedyś spróbuję jakąś zrobić. Moze masz ochotę pokazać backstrap na Prząśniczce ?
