Download or read book The Technique of Split-Shed Weaving written by Killgore Lynne and published by . This book was released on 2023-10-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Break out of blocks with split-shed weaving. This technique gives any weaver with a 4-shaft loom the ability to weave pictorial imagery using continuous wefts without the need for complicated equipment, pick-up sticks, dobby mechanisms, graphed designs, or warp thread counting. One can weave structures that include variations of twills, tied weaves, double weft-faced weaves, taqueté, samitum, Bronson, double weave, lampas, piqué, waffle and more! Every pattern is accompanied by color images with detailed enlargements. Easy-to-understand drafts include drawdowns that illustrate all possible pattern combinations, as well as tie-up and treadling diagrams for jack, direct tie-up, table, countermarch and counterbalance looms.The beginning chapters are designed to allow the weaver to create a multi-pattern sampler on a single warp. The book progression enables one to advance from one shuttle structures to two-shuttle weaves, then to multi-shuttle weaving, allowing the weaver to mix colors and create shading. The book includes simplified treadling instructions for several loom types that can be copied and attached to the loom for easy reference while weaving. There are also instructions for creating a cartoon that remains flat and that will not wrinkle when beating.Deborah Silver is an artist, author, and weaving instructor. Her weavings employ the split-shed technique, transforming traditional pattern structures into a signature method of hand-weaving. All weft yarns travel from selvedge to selvedge, differentiating this cloth from tapestry. Her past works have been inspired by the increased cross-culturalism in the world which has been facilitated by technology. Her recent art is drawn from American women's history and from memorials found in old cemeteries. Deborah's weavings have been shown in numerous local and international juried exhibitions, receiving many awards, including the Complex Weavers Award and First Place at "Complexity 2018: Innovations in Weaving". She received a Cleveland Jewish Arts and Culture Fellowship award in 2015, and an Ohio Arts Council Individual Excellence Award in 2019.Deborah continues to explore the many facets of split-shed weaving in her art, discovering new ways to combine her imagery with pattern structures.

Book Synopsis Kissing the Shuttle by : Mary Ann Mayer
Download or read book Kissing the Shuttle written by Mary Ann Mayer and published by Blackstone River Books. This book was released on 2018-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Original poetry, dozens of archival images, and illuminating historical summaries depict the rise of the mills and King Cotton in the 19th century through the turn of the 20th. An accomplished poet weaves a tapestry of the textile industry that the Historian Laureate of Rhode Island calls "a blend of both triumph and tragedy." With the rise of the mills came a matrix of events, at times deadly, always in the name of prosperity. Labor "paced for the first time to feed the nation's frenzy for finished cloth. Northern collusion in slave-grown southern cotton. The tuberculosis epidemic. "Kissing the shuttle" was a common weaving practice that spread TB, and is but one inter-connected subject of this lyric narrative. Discover Rhode Island's pioneering public health role in curbing TB: "open-air" schools, the first hot school lunch program and formal outdoor recess, child labor laws and factory sanitation. Experience life in a TB sanatorium and open-air school through the eyes of a spirited young girl, inspired by the author's ancestors. Glimpse mill towns teeming with new arrivals, toxins coloring the Blackstone River, tenement porches strung with clotheslines "sagging with shirts that never dry / the same blue shirts / that cling, damp / to the backs of the laborers / a gray-blue line reaching to dawn." The author, also an occupational therapist, has delivered a well-researched, engaging volume which will inform, surprise, and entertain readers of history and poetry alike, and provide a teaching tool for YA students. Mayer re-enacts a history at risk of being forgotten, and shows its human face.
