Steve from Axe and Paddle Bushcraft shows how to do bead work with a hazel stick loom. axeandpaddlebushcraft@gmail.com @axeandpaddle www.axeandpaddlebushcraft.co.uk
I've never seen this technique before nor have I seen a handmade loom like this one. No muss or fuss, just a simple design with the flexibility to expand or reduce one's work.Brilliant.
Dude!!! Thank you so much for throughly explaining as you go. You've helped me tremendously!!!! Thank you thank thank You!!!! Such gorgeous work you do!
Pretty cool!! Just read your article on hats in Bushcraft Journal and thought I would stop over and check out your site. Subbed ya to make sure I come back and check out more of it.
I started a piece of beading for a bracelet, but my pattern turned out to be too long. It turned into a hat band, but I don't know how long to make the beaded part. Are they all the same length? By the by, your beading style is great. Gotta try that.
You don't go back through the bead here. They're held in place by the threads. This kind of beadwork typically would have been backed with leather or something similar and sewn onto clothing/blankets etc.
you can roll your extra cordage(beaded warp threads) around the base of a loom(dowel rods at the ends of the looms) and as you progress you take the piece off the loom and wrap it around the other end. Kind of like a scroll. You weave in tension threads at the base of the warps threads to hold the tension while you are scrolling the piece up. For better understanding pull up an image search for "anatomy of a beading loom. " This technique can be a clumsy to do at first, but with more practice it becomes second nature.
you dont find it easier the bead loom way stringing all the beads across on your warp thread and then bringing it under the threads and put one bead in-between every 2 threads much easier my pieces are like 275 across

Wow that's impressive. How long would a project like that take?
About a day
what's the difference between bead weaving n the other way of looming?? where u go under with beads n then lock em by going thru the upper ???

Any suggestions on good looms for hat bands? Other than the hazel stick? All of the ones i find are very small!
Thank you :)
