Turned Krokbragd on the Inkle

[@tlockerk]

Love the little sheep!

[@susanalopezcarballo1102]

Thank you for your explanation, I am making my first inkle krokbragd!

[@danquigg8311]

Have you ever considered making some parts of your videos with the camera mounted above your hands, kinda above your head, to give a point of view from the way you, or the weaver, is actually viewing the work in progress? I think I'm more clearly understand your instructions presented this way.

[@PetroicaRodinogaster264]

look at that luscious wool behind you, my mind spins just seeing it.

[@kimandmoandnoelly]

Thank you for this video! I am attempting to weave Traditional on page 107 of Anne Dixon's Inkle Pattern Directory and couldn't quite figure out how to lift U2 without including U3.

[@JoanSheridan]

You are so welcome! It can be a bit confusing at first!

[@Gigimamapa5]

Beautiful work.

[@JoanSheridan]

Thank you very much!

[@debbiedoggett1352]

I'm interested in setup of this technique on the inkle loom. Any resources?

[@JoanSheridan]

Thanks for asking. Yes, I have a video with Long Thread Media. You can purchase it here: bit.ly/2PWZiEc

[@moegirl76]

It's under the workshops tab at the link Joan posted. Here's the direct link. learn.longthreadmedia.com/courses/weave-turned-krokbragd-on-an-inkle-loom

[@amariebeaubien]

@@moegirl76 thank you so much!!

[@johnmichaels6794]

Joan, first, thanks for your videos, excellent!. I notice when you are weaving you are "pinching" the weft as you pull - what's the theory behind that, is it just to feel the tension?

[@JoanSheridan]

It is so I can feel when the weft hits the selvedge. I can feel when it is right better than I can see when it is right.

[@johnmichaels6794]

@@JoanSheridan Thanks Joan - I'll give that a shot.

[@rainbowgal8047]

I would have liked to see how you set it up. Maybe another video?

[@JoanSheridan]

I did a video for Long Thread Media that has full instructions. Soon I will release a monograph on the technique. Follow my blog at JoanSheridan.com to learn when it is published.

[@A-baby-pear]

Is this pattern online anywhere?

[@bettspassmore4248]

I am unable to come into the store for a course. I would love to do Krokbragd on my Inkle loom. Is you beginner course to do the herd of sheep available on line? Also is there instructions on how to create patterns for other shapes? TIA

[@JoanSheridan]

I know it's been a while since you asked, but I'll provide an answer anyhow. I did a tutorial/video for Long Thread Media that can be purchased on their site. I have a handbook with video links in the works.

[@carinemartens6512]

Thanks for your video. Do you sell patterns?

[@JoanSheridan]

A belated answer ... yes, we sell patterns. They can be found on our website, heritagespinning.com. Enjoy!

[@slowroad8270]

Thank you very much for your videos!! I've recently started weaving on a inklette loom. What type of yarn are you weaving with? I'm using 8/2 cotton and find the patterns don't show as well. Or maybe I'm beating too hard? :)

[@JoanSheridan]

I most often use 8/4. The size of yarn should be proportional to the intended use. I would use an 8/2 for garment trim and 8/4 for a belt or bag strap. Hope that helps!

[@lindaakers2991]

What books do you recommend? Also For card weaving

[@rainylee59]

Joan, I’m doing the class on this thru your link to long thread media. You said you use DMC Cebelia for your heddles. What size?

[@JoanSheridan]

I use mostly 20, but sometimes 10. Rarely 30-only use it for fine threads.

[@Silac2008]

Thanks I like it

[@lindaakers2558]

Do you do on line classes? How do you advance the warp?

[@JoanSheridan]

Yes, we do on-line classes. Our current schedule is at heritagespinning.com. Check back often because we add classes all the time.
