New Video Course: Baltic Pick-Up on the Inkle Loom

Plain-weave inkle bands offer a wide variety of designs, but pick-up expands the pattern possibilities even more. There are many approaches to pick-up, but Baltic pick-up is often the first step for weavers.

This style involves picking pattern threads up and down from their natural weave. As you manipulate the pattern threads, the background weaves plain weave, and row-by-row, your design appears—like a little bit of bandweaving magic.

As you watch this course, you'll learn about: 
 

  • Materials and equipment 
  • Baltic pick-up drafts
  • Reading a pick-up chart with ease
  • Identifying which pattern threads should be up or down
  • Weaving more efficiently
  • Starting and ending your bands
  • And more!


Using your inkle loom and a few simple tools, you can create floral motifs, Xs and Os, hearts, lettering, and an unlimited array of designs. So, grab your inkle loom, shuttle, and pick-up stick, and let's get started!

Please consider  subscribing today The Best (and Worst) Ways to Weight Floating Selvedges By: Christina Garton Throughout my 10 years or so of weaving I've used many items to weight my floating selvedges and/or broken warp ends. Some have worked beautifully and some not so much. Here, in my opinion, is where they stand from least to most useful Binder Clip Clipped to Something Heavy-ish For this first method, I tied the floating selvedges around the handle of a large binder clip and then clipped it to something with a bit of heft, I'm not sure exactly what. It didn't matter, of course, because this worked terribly. This method came from me not being able to find ...
