Weaving Pattern Designs on a Frame Loom
“Congratulations! You've reached the end of this Domestika course and have successfully learned how to create weave structures on the frame loom. I hope you feel inspired to continue weaving and creating patterns independently. I recommend spending some time drawing different grid patterns to find what you like for future projects. The more you experiment with color, yarn thickness, and scale of weaving patterns, the more you'll find your voice. It's time to continue working on your project or start something new. I highly suggest documenting the process as you go in a sketchbook so that you can take notes on different project choices. That way, if you want to re-create a design in the future, you'll have all the information you need to do so! These are my recommendations: 1 - Gather your loom and materials needed. 2 - Choose a weave structure and yarn for your project. Draw the weave structure if it's not a pre-made design. 3 - Warp the loom and weave a header. 4 - Follow the grid pattern pick-by-pick until your design is complete. 5 - Take your weaving off the loom, add finishing touches, and hang it up for display. I invite you to participate in the forum and interact by commenting on the community's work. After all, we will help each other, so take advantage of this opportunity! See you in the forum! ”
