Pasamo... with passion
Last year was a successful one – at least in terms of weaving. I may gradually be able to report here. I have made some progress in the area of weaving on vertical looms. Previous attempts were different – usually time-consuming and not very engaging. I already have two weft samples from a tapestry with a linen warp and two mixed cloths, so it came…
In keeping with the medieval tradition, I would like to make a fabric “that is useless” someday. I certainly know how to make fabrics that are good for nothing ;P While still in Biskupin at the Festival, I finished a long-hanging warp. The result was a piece of questionable quality fabric measuring 130 x 43 cm. There is a selvedge at one end…
Today, during the Biskupin Festival, I finished a long-hanging fabric and my vertical looms are finally free. I also had an idea on how to simplify the creation of the warp. The edge selvedge worked well in the case of the apron, but it will not be needed in all cases. In addition, the warping and weaving of the edge selvedge with the addition of the actual fabric to the warp weft…

The selvedge from the previous post became the upper edge selvedge for the apron made on a vertical loom. I wove an additional thread through it, which is the warp. As it was being made, it looked like this: The loom has its permanent place by the chimney, although it often leaves it to go on a journey with me (in time and space). It is already equipped with all…
