Instructions

This is just basic warp-faced plain weave. The pattern comes entirely from the yarn.

Difficulty:

Category: Weaving

Type of item: Accessory

For: Unisex

Style: Traditional, Funky, Retro / Vintage, Casual


Materials

* self-patterning yarns - one DK cotton in blues, the other acrylic in greens * inkle loom, shuttle, string heddles * darning needle to weave in ends

What was your inspiration?

A new Ashford inklette loom and yarn I was given for Christmas

What are you most proud of?

Now I have an excuse to weave some fabric to match the strap - time to learn how to do doubleweave!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Inkling is easy, fun and addictive!
