Learning how to do the ancient art of CARD WEAVING (tablet weaving) from a master (and Keytar Jams)

[@gisrid878]

How could anybody not watch your videos till the end? They are always interesting and entertaining and funny and full of music and creativity, just like this one 🤘🏻😍! Thank you both for new inspiration 👏!

[@sevenandthelittlestmew]

I couldn’t watch the whole thing without scanning through because I have to make dinner, but… The Bad Stanleys? Epic. And my cat came over to hear your keytar solo, which could be a good thing. I will probably never learn how to do card weaving, but I absolutely love the way your mind comes up with quilt designs that appeal to my nerdiness, so I’ve been binge watching and learning a bit from how you work through design issues to find better solutions. I was sold when I saw the airplane whitework and the Cheez-It quilts, and the deal was sealed with zombroidery and the deer in the cityscape. I’m so glad to see younger generations getting involved in quilting and crafting!

[@annat174]

Watched the entire video. Have watched all of your videos from start to finish. Always educational and most of all enjoyable.

[@elizabethsherry4802]

That was just so much fun to watch....you both had me smiling the whole time. Brill to see you learning something new. It looks so complicated... turned out so good..loved the pattern and Keytar playing. Thank you over and over....THE best Craft Room EVER.!!

[@skepticbat]

Just when I thought I couldn't love this channel more... You inspire me to just Do. The. Thing. in my own quilting and other fiber practices, and to always keep trying new things. Thank you, Dave. ❤ Also great job in the video Austin, you seem like a great teacher 😊

[@amara.nthine]

I'd seen some tablet weaving on insta and it looked like mysterious magic. Now it totally looks do-able and awesome.. Trying to remind myself I don't need another craft 😬🖤

[@cuteyrupert9483]

Wow love the card weaving, looks so complicated but interesting, love seeing the band! What can’t you do, you’re awesome!

[@partyfiesta1557]

I just warped my inkle loom this evening! I still have to figure out how to use card. Planning on weaving some Baltic bands and then monk’s belt for a crocheted bag. Hugs from Provence ❤

[@katrinedukic5195]

Thank you for this, we learned about something new and got to see you having fun with your friend. Now I have to watch more tablet weaving videos! And I did watch the whole video Austyn!

[@karacrawford7393]

I love the “do we need graph paper”. The answer is ALWAYS “YES”!

[@Silvermander]

Personally I prefer knitting graph paper. It is rectangles and gives a closer look to what the weaving will look like. Just turn it 1/4 so the rectangles are facing the right direction.

[@longarmingbyjaclyn]

The banter was EXCEPTIONAL! Great video. I had no idea you were so multi-talented and musical, Ms. Edwards.

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

I had an inkle loom when I was a kid. But I didn't use the cards so must have been a much simpler pattern. You got pretty good at this at the end. Thanks for sharing.

[@justinaprima9495]

I'm a retired hospice nurse. While living in Ohio, i had a young Amish patient whose friends worked on a quilt in her room every day On one of my visits they were all there and i told them how beautiful their work is and so perfect. One woman said, "No, we don't do perfect. We put a mistake in to make it imperfect. Only God is perfect"

[@anitajonsson4379]

Wow, thank you Austin. You were absolutely right. I had dropped in only to give Dave a "thumbs up" so he could earn money. But, because of you very serious and logical plea for us to stay and watch the entire video (and because I now know that Dave checks the analytics to see how many videos actually get watched all the way through) I have stayed and watched this Card Weaving video all the way through, right to the very end. And, boy am I glad I did. I learned a lot, on so many levels. You guys are very amusing, have incredible powers...the capacity to pay attention ...to persevere for a very long time while enjoying the process. No wonder you guys know how to do so many cool, unusual, and varied things. Excellent teaching, great collaboration, and truly fun and amazing creativity. Austin, I really liked the belt as you were unfurling it but did not see the "POOP" letters coming. It was like you knew what I was thinking "he is so talented, but why did he choose the alphabet for his sample design?" Throwing in the unexpected won...I am sure...the wholehearted support for card weaving by everyone watching. The message, "Beginners, it's fun, don't take it all so serious and give it a try. It is fun, useful, and can end up looking like and being anything you decide that it will be." Dave, you continue to amaze me. Not only did you succeed, but you went to work and put you new talent to good use. I am sure your Mom loved receiving the baggage tag you made her. She will be taking a part of you wherever she travels. KUDOS guys!! Exceptionally well done.

[@rebeccatrombley6579]

That space quilt is just amazing.

[@claremcgill2490]

Fun, fun, fun .... hilarious actually. Watched from beginning to end, as always!! How could I not ❤

[@mariaslayman9795]

What a serendipitous video. I had just purchased some cards and an instruction booklet on my travels to Norway! Came back to the hotel and there was your video! I loved the banter between you and Austin. I love all of your videos from start to finish!

[@pamelanred5053]

That was fun. I enjoyed watching your process but I’ll never do this. I’m impressed by y’all’s band you truly are multitalented.

[@helend222]

A new craft to explore .... thank you both.

[@margarethanson50]

So cool craft card waving and y’all have fun together

[@hebby]

Now I want to do card weaving! I stuffed and hand-sewed a pillow shut while watching and made it go by in no time at all!

[@sandylutz7280]

Ha! I watched the whole video! Nice job on your strap.

[@jeannette7243]

I watched the whole video. The two of you are hilarious. Thank you.

[@chriswilford3576]

Me too!

[@juliemiller9258]

When you turned the cards for the first time, my mind changed gears! This was really great fun to watch! For me, it was like having my kids back home and hearing them laughing and doing stuff together. Karen Nyberg's fabric introduced you and Dave's Craft Room to me, and I am really enjoying watching your quilt making. Appliqueing the airplanes onto the blocks really helped me to try to allow myself to be freer in creating more of the look and feel I want to add to my quilts. Thanks for sharing Dave's Craft Room with all of us! 🧵🧵🌴🌴🪡🪡

[@peepers4763]

Impressive ending project!

[@meridithfodera3796]

Interesting content. Thanks for sharing.

[@aktarango]

Fascinating!! I was doing some embroidery and stopped my craft to watch you two 😄. FYI, I watched it all 💕

[@TheQueenPi]

For sure made it to the end because watching Dave play with those scissors was stressful 😂

[@ChristineKrannich]

I LOVE Card Weaving! It is so much fun!

[@patstrawhouse4005]

You and Austin are so great together! I love watching the banter between long-time friends. The look you gave when Austin found the glue gun was priceless! I had to re-watch it at least twice. I hope to see the two of you together in future videos. I’m afraid that I must be messing with your analytics, because I sometimes start a new video and then go back to make sure I gave 👍🏻 on the previous one. I’m now trying to 👍🏻 when I start watching. Thanks for brightening my day! Stay well, Muskoka ON 🇨🇦

[@artistirmafeliciarodriguez7752]

Hello Dave and Austyn, Loved your video, awesome job with the card weaving.

[@delwyngraham4033]

Amazing work 😊

[@BlissEckland]

So cool!! I have never seen card weaving before.

[@Craftythrifter]

So fun to see a new craft, I’ve always wanted to learn to weave on a big loom, probably not going to at this point but maybe I could do this. The POOP strap was HILARIOUS! 😜😎 Also, I ALWAYS watch all the way thru, what if I missed something?!👀

[@KaliforniaLA]

Dave, still waiting for my California quilt buddy.

[@JO-rx4tk]

I've seen people use rubber bands as stoppers on the end of inkle loom pegs, but I like the bottle cap idea!

[@kerryverity963]

Great video,you had me cracking up !! I just subscribed 😂 Nice job with the weaving!❤

[@KarlafromOZ]

So cool, you really got the hang of it, great work

[@nancymathisen9707]

Someone gave me some cards and instructions about 45 years ago but I never tried using them. I didn’t think tablet weaving required a loom. Interesting.

[@davescraftroom]

People do it without the loom too, you can fasten the strings to something sturdy and do it that way; we just decided to use the looms :P

[@jennifermiller7986]

The exact moment I knew we are kindred spirits..."I have a drawer full of human xrays" 😊

Lol sick music break!

[@ЕленаРафаилена]

Плетение на дощечках - очень древний вид ткачества поясов и тесьмы у финно-угорских народов, в том числе у народа вепсы и русских, которые населяли северо-запад России ( Карелию, Вологодскую и Ленинградскую области). В современном мире вместо дощечек и костяных пластин используют плотный картон. На русскоязычном ютюбе много обучающих видео из тех мест. Вы как древние мастера 😊

[@love__JOY__peaches]

I decided to card weave a few years ago. Using 48 playing cards, I began weaving a guitar strap.... With the saying from The One Ring from Lord of the Rings. Easy peasy right? Hahahaha.

[@Right-sides-together]

Dave’s face at 15:57. 😂

[@paulaneary7877]

Interesting video. Thank you for showing us this. I am curious how long it takes you to make a strap, or the tag? Like about how many hours?

[@davescraftroom]

the tag only a couple hours... longer if I include all the mistakes 😂 the keytar strap took a few more hours and then the big one with words took I think a few sessions of a couple hours each over a few days

[@teentitansrock88]

Stfu. I literally have been on a kick to make a strap for my bass all week. I've learned like 3 different techniques XD I love that you learned this for the same reason XD (I could have bought one, but like you said, they just aren't serving.)

[@lucy7b]

Thank you

If I were young and British I’d hate all this inches stuff. Luckily I’m old enough to remember inches from my youth and I quilt. The rest of the world does cms America. 😅

[@Kimberton149]

I dunno, I'm young(ish!) and British. cms would be so weird for quilting or weaving!!

[@davescraftroom]

using inches is intuitive to me since I learned it in childhood, I never knew it had anything to do with being British 😅 although I was shocked to discover that British terms for music notes are different, instead of quarter note and an eighth note they call it a crotchet and a quaver 😂😂
