Thank you. I found your video to be very helpful. I had attended a class, but it was not made clear that we only use the pattern color threads to pickup or that we needed a pattern thread for each row of the patterns. You made both clear. I am most grateful.
Thanks for video. I've been weaving on the inkle for years but haven't for a while. Trying to remember how to do a rope on the inkle( leash). I remember going around ,but can't remember how to do it. I've made dog collors and the leash.
@opu It's not exactly a focus problem. I used a 7 year old point and shoot camera, so the resolution is rubbish. Of course back when it was posted there weren't any high definition free video hosting sites either, so it didn't really matter. I still don't own a better camera, so this is all there is.
This is a very well explained method. i am eager to give it a try. I have completed two basic bar patterns belts and am ready to move on to new and more exciting patterns. thank you for putting this out there for those of us who do not have access to other more experienced weavers.

@evethejust Hmm, well, my Aunt is Swedish Irish chicagoan nun, and I believed she lived for long while in Colarado... so... well, I guess I don't see any connection. :/
Hello, and thanks so very much for posting this! It is a great help. The patterns obviously have moved, now that Geocities is down. Can you post here where they can be found now please? Or, could you give us an email address to request a copy of the hand-outs? Thanks so very much!
Wondering where the patterns can be found at this point, now that the geocities site has gone away? I had done the first pattern and was working on the second one when I moved and lost track of the printout!
For keeping track on a pattern, I like to use metal board with a magnet strip, something I started using for doing counted cross stitch. The magnet won't move if you need to stop or move your project and you won't lose track of where you left off.
I wish you couls get up a little closer on the pickup on the red peice. That is what I really need to see, when I try doing it myself just following in a book, I just don't qquite get it right. The frustration sets in and I give up.

This video is really pretty badly out of focus, it seems like it might have been really informative if viewers could actually see what is going on.

I think this video is beautiful. It shows both "simple" and "advanced" at the same time. Lovely!
I hope I will be able to try this kind of weaving as well some day.
