.22Glossary .24What Is Weaving?Weaving is the process of creating fabric by lacing together two sets of threads or fibers.The art and practical craft of weaving dates back tens of thousands of years.In ancient times,people wore shirts,skirts,and hats made of grasses that had been woven together.Before beginning a new woven pattern,the weaver needs two sets of threads as a base.The warp is a set of vertical threads that are held in position,usually over a frame,by tension.The weft is one or more horizontal threads.The weaver laces the weft over and under the warp and packs it down so the threads fit closely together and form a fabric.This book introduces you to the art of weaving with three fun projectsa paper mat,a friendship bracelet,and a dreamcatcher.Each project will introduce you to a different way to weave.Lets begin!Weaving with natural materialsWeave It!Level T34Table of ContentsWhat Is Weaving?.4Paper Mat Weaving.5Weaving a Friendship Bracelet

Attach beads,feathers,and other decorative items directly to the hoop or to fringe you tie to the hoop.Use a small drop of white glue if needed to hold things in place.To change your hoops color,you can wrap it with yarn,paint it,or color it with markers.Use a small branch instead of a wire hoop as your foundation.Experiment with splitting your finger weaving into two or more branches partway across the hoop.5 Create a loop with yarn or thread on the top of your dreamcatcher.Hang it above your bed and enjoy your dreams!VariationsWeave It!Level T56Paper Mat WeavingOur first project introduces the basics of weaving with a paper-weaving activity.You can use paper weaving to make placemats,book covers,and colorful designs to hang on a wall.1 Select one pieceof paper,which will be the warp,or foundation,of your project.Carefully fold it in half and draw a straight line 1”from the long open edge.2 Draw ten to twelve lines from the fold to the straight line you just drew.You may make these lines straight,curved,or a mixture.Be careful to avoid drawing lines too close to the edges of the paper.Also,avoid drawing complicated shapes,as this will make weaving too hard.3 Keeping the paper folded,cut along the lines you drew in step 2.Start at the fold in the paper and stop at the straight line.Do not cut on the straight line.Gently unfold your paper and place it flat on the table with the cuts placed vertically.Materials:9”x 12”construction paper(One whole piece,a second piece cut into 1”x 9”strips)Pencil Ruler Scissors Glue stickWeave It!Level T56Paper Mat WeavingOur

yarn to use as the foundation of your dreamcatcher.Handle your creation gently as you work on it to avoid distorting the shape of the hoop.half knot with embroidery flossfringe and symmetrical patternhalf knot combining yarn and embroidery flossfreeform patternHelpful Hints:Cut about 6 of yarn to wrap a 12”hoop.Tie the yarn to the hoop with an overhand knot.Hide the tails by wrapping the yarn around them.Use two or more colors to wrap your hoop to add visual interest.2 Using yarn and the finger-weaving technique on page 10,create as many woven strips as you want.Attach them to your dreamcatcher with square knots.3 Add other pieces of yarn as desired,usinga combination of knotting and braiding.Use your imagination to create designs and different ways of attaching yarn.You can create symmetrical patterns,spider webs using half knots,freeform patterns,and more.Weave It!Level T784 Pick up a 1”x 9”strip of a different color of paper,which is the weft.Insert the strip crosswise over one warp and under the next one.If youre right-handed,start on the right side,and if youre left-handed,start on the left side.Continue weaving over one strip and under the next strip until you reach the far edge.Gently slide this weft strip all the way to the top edge of the warp,stopping at the horizontal line.5 Start weaving a new row with another 1”x 9”strip of paper.Since the previous row began with over one,start this row with under one.Continue weaving weft strips,alternating how you start the rows(over one and then under one).Gently slide each weft strip up right next to the previous one.Be especially gentle as you insert the last strip to avoid tearing the paper.6 After your weaving is finished,use a glue stick to attach the loose edges of the weft strips.Turn over your weaving and glue these edges,too.Congratulationsyouve just finished your first weaving!Weave It!Level T784 Pick up a 1”x 9”strip of a different color of paper,which is the weft.Insert the strip

the overhand knot.DreamcatchersOur third project combines finger weaving with other fiber techniques.Dreamcatchers are Native American objects traditionally hung over a bed or cradle.Legend has it that they catch bad dreams,which get burned up by the Sun the next day.Good dreams pass through dreamcatchers and allow for peaceful sleep.Materials:Sturdy hoop Yarn and thread of various colors and textures Beads and shells with large holes,feathers,small bells,pompoms,and other decorative items Experiment with different color patterns,such as alternating warp colors or creating a stripe in the middle.If your weaving has six or more warp threads,you can try other weaving patterns.These two use overtwo and under two.Be sure to start with an even number of warp threads(not counting the one that becomes the weft)for these patterns.VariationsWeave It!Level T910Weaving a Friendship BraceletOur next project uses your paper-weaving skills to work with thread.You can make friendship bracelets with this finger-weaving technique and also use it in dreamcatchers.1 Cut four to six warp threads of embroidery floss,each thread 1 long,as well as one weft thread 4 in length.Line up one end of all the threads even with each other,and tie an overhand knot 3”from the e
