'One Warp, Many Structures: an Exploration of Extended Parallel Threading' At-Home Workshop
Pattern and Instructions for 4-shaft Deflected Double Weave Scarf in Collapse Fabric
Weave a scarf with two layers joined by a collapse fabric in the middle -- on just 4 shafts! This download gives you detailed instructions on yarns, sett, picks per inch, and finishing, as well as a WIF file plus a full printed drawdown, including tieup, treadling and liftplan. How is it that such a complex-looking pattern can be woven on just 4 shafts? It's the versatility of Deflected Double Weave, which allows for graphic display of colors and can be woven in two layers and then joined into one. Venne Colcolastic yarn is the other secret ingredient: On the loom and before washing, it behaves like any cotton. But immediately upon immersion in warm water and soap, it shrinks up and draws the surrounding yarns in to form an organic-looking texture, adding lots of visual interest to the fabric.

Falling Stars as Echo Weave
Falling Stars as Jin
This is a compilation of 56 WIF files, all of them structures that I designed for the "One Warp, Many Structures" workshop I taught at Convergence 2018 in Reno, NV. There are 10 different threadings in all: 3 for 4-shaft looms, 3 for 8-shaft looms, 3 for 12-shaft looms and 1 for 16-shaft looms. Each threading has WIF files for weaving as Echo, Jin (Turned Taqueté), Rep Weave, Shadow Weave and Double Weave. The aim of the workshop is to learn how to weave all of these structures on one threading, simply by changing the tie up and treadling and weft yarns -- and sometimes re-sleying. This body of work aims to demonstrate the creative potential of extended parallel threadings, providing you with designs you can explore for a long time to come.

In this download you will receive a 23-page workshop handout giving you instructions on choosing colors, preparing dyes, painting two warps and beaming them together on your loom to create one luminous warp. Many structures and designs lend themselves to this technique, including Echo, double weave, Jin, and turned Overshot, among others -- so this download also includes WIFs and PDF threadings, tieups and treadlings for designs on 4, 6, 8 and 12 shafts. In addition, this download includes a color guide, with 4 different palettes to choose from, listing the exact colors to purchase from ProChemical and Dye to paint your warps in the palette of your choice. The workshop is for cellulose fibers (cotton, Tencel, rayon, bamboo, hemp, linen and silk) using MX fiber-reactive dyes.
