Card Weaving—no sleight of hand

"Pick a card . . . any card . . ." An informative demonstration on Card Weaving was presented at the August Riverbend Fiber Arts Guild meeting. Brenda P. provided information on the history of this weaving method which uses cards with holes through which yarns are threaded. The turning of the cards and the position of the colored yarns create the patterns in the finished woven piece. Information was given on how to weave for tubular and flat formats.

After the presentation, guild members had the opportunity for some hands-on experimentation using the tools and supplies of this "loom-less" weaving process.

Got cards up your sleeve? A visit to this meeting of the Riverbend Fiber Arts Guild showed how turning your cards can create a winning "band."
