WARP Material
(what your "loom" is made out of) |
Approximately
30 yds of warp material.
This can be yarn, crochet
cotton, ribbon, etc.
Keep in mind that
it takes a substantial
amount to do the warp
for weaving, and you
will use more of this
for the weft too.
That's
why yarn is a good
choice, lots of pretty
ones and many skeins
come with lots of yardage.
Don’t
use anything with stretch! |
Yarn
Needle (large eye,
blunt tip)
Bodkin (Optional)
Hair Pick (for tamping
down the weaving).
15 x 20 piece of
Foam Core Board (available
at most art supply
stores)
Heavy
Pins (regular sewing
pins are too lightweight,
you need short (1”)
heavy pins for best
results.
Threads, yarns, buttons,
beads for embellishment |
WEFT
Material
(what you'll be weaving)
|
Various
scraps of fabric,
ultrasuede, yarn,
trims, etc., to match
your lining fabric
for the inside of
the clutch.
If you're
doing fabric strips,
plan on minimum 15” lengths
(by approx. 1” wide
strips) of each fabric
you pick. |
Closure: Choose a great button, coordinating fabric loop, ties, or a magnetic snap for your clutch closure. |
