It is Christmas time again. I have been able to get back to the drawloom this winter and I designed and wove a new Christmas Tree using the rules for Opphamta.\u00a0 My original inspiration was a counted cross stitch design that I saw on Pinterest. The design as I first saw it was not suitable for weaving in Opphamta. I made the necessary modifications and discovered that it can be woven on a drawloom that has 41 blocks. This can be accomplished with either a single unit drawloom, or a 50 shaft drawloom. The pattern can be modified to be woven on looms with less than 40 blocks by eliminating the rows from the bottom of the tree.<\/p>\n
If you are interested in purchasing the original piece that I wove on the drawloom, please contact me via email, or PM me on facebook.<\/p>\n
If you are more interested in weaving your own tree. I have posted the *.wif file for the draft in my shop: https:\/\/historicweaving.com\/wordpress\/products-page\/weaving_drafts_computer\/2019-christmas-tree\/<\/a>\u00a0 it is a $3 download.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It is Christmas time again.
