Finished Table Runner – Woven on a Cricket Loom

Last week I taught a class on Rigid Heddle Weaving. Each student purchased 3/2 pearle cotton to use as both warp and weft for their table runners.

The goals of the class were to direct warp a rigid heddle loom, to use cash register tape to keep track of pattern and to weave both the Leno pattern and the Brooks Bouquet pattern.

Carolyn’s runner turned out beautifully as you can see in the pictures below. She had enough cotton left over to work on the picnic placemats from the Schacht site!! I can’t wait to see how they turn out!!
