I love the trick to keep the woven textile the same width. So many times I see examples where it starts out wide, but then gets skinnier, and it’s always irritated me. You’re the first person I’ve ever seen use a method to prevent that, and I think it’s awesome. Your piece doesn’t look all that long, but I don’t see extra thread at the top, I’m just wondering what you would use it for. Pretty colours though, very nice! 😍
Yes, the temple is really helpful in keeping the width consistent, especially for beginners. Also when getting into brocade, because the added tension can me it more challenging. This shorter version is what we've called a "Practice Loom" and we think it makes a great wall hanging when finished :) It's an easy loom to get started with.
@@kakawdesigns Good to know, thank you!
Wow.. it's nice to see you learning our peoples art. My family weaving also. But more of the brocade style
How wonderful! We practice brocade also! But for that, we have master weaver Doña Lidia, she's the true expert, she leads our sessions on Zoom. She practices single-faced and double-faced brocade from the town San Antonio Aguas Calientes in Guatemala.
Now i got it. the principle of opening.thank you so much!
Glad to hear it was helpful!
Thank you for this video, what an elegant process! I'm extra excited to get started on the gooorgeous ikat loom you sent me!
Oh that's so wonderful to hear! Let us know how your weaving journey goes :) And you can always join our Zoom sessions with Doña Lidia to practice with the master weaver, she's always so good at giving tips and answering questions.
Love it! I would love to see a detailed on how to brocade though. Great work!
For brocade work, we host classes on Zoom accompanied with pre-recorded videos with Doña Lidia, a master weaver from San Antonio Aguas Calientes, Guatemala :)

Bonjour ,je vous ai fait un commentaire , je ne suis pas sure de l’avoir bien envoyé.
Je vous demandais si vous aviez fait une vidéo sur le montage de la chaîne . je procède un métier comme le votre mais j’ai un problème au montage . je ne comprends pas comment fixer le premier ainsi que le dernier fil .
Merci pour votre vidéo
Ta. Helpful.
Glad to hear it!
Bonjour , merci pour vos bonnes explications .je procède un métier comme le votre je trouve que c’est le plus simple et surtout le moins cher . Il y a de merveilleux tissages faits avec cette façon toute simple . mais le problème est de monter la chaîne , est-ce que vous avez une vidéo sur ce sujet ? Pour ma part la difficulté est de fixer le premier et le denier fil .
Bonne soirée à vous .
Hi there! I'm sorry I don't speak French, I've translated your text but am not sure of your question... I wonder if you are referring to how to set up a backstrap loom? If so, we offer an online class on this topic with master weaver Doña Lidia

Это ткацтво Майя?
Yes, this is a backstrap loom in the traditional Maya Kaqchikel style from Guatemala.
@@kakawdesigns я очень люблю Майя. И нравится ваша культура, которая долгое время была изолирована от привычной европейской и азиатской культуры, что делает её более таинственной и роскошной. Спасибо за видео, в которых запечатлен способ ткацтва, созданный руками Майя. Привет из России👋
