Bedspreads, rugs, poncho - interesting ideas
With her own hands, a craftswoman can weave such beauty that she cannot say a fairy tale, as they say, nor a pen. Of course, manual weaving is a long, laborious process. And best of all, if woven art objects are produced using a special device - a manual loom. But rugs, bedspreads for chairs and sofas can be made without the use of a machine. You can weave these interesting decor ideas with your own hands using a regular wooden frame with cloves-hooks stuffed on two opposite sides. Thin, but strong threads are imposed on the hooks - the basis. The frame itself is positioned so that the base is vertical. Now, the master manually puts thick threads wound around the shuttle, gently interweaving them with the base. By alternating colors, you can achieve a unique pattern in the product, even complete the picture - this is how the beautiful and unique tapestries were created in antiquity.
Self-woven carpets - interesting ideas
With your own hands you can create not only woven tapestries, but also make a soft fluffy rug. If the framework method already described is used, then pieces of wool or yarn are simply fastened in knots on strong warp threads. Selecting the yarn of the desired color in accordance with the selected pattern, you can create a real masterpiece: from the landscape or ornament to the icon or portrait. You can make a carpet in a simpler way - using a special needle. Typically, a carpeted needle is made of thick medical needles by drilling a hole for a thread at the very tip. The handle also needs to be hollow in order to let the working thread into it. Insert the thread using a regular needle, which already has the right color yarn wound in a ball in the eye. A needle with a thread is brought out from below through a medical needle, then dragged into a drilled hole. Then the auxiliary sewing needle is removed. The desired pattern has already been applied to the fabric. The craftswoman works on the wrong side, sticking a needle with a thread on the end and putting it back. Thus, on the front side, which is currently the opposite of the working, a loop is formed. The master should do “steps” about the same size, rather tightly. After completing the entire drawing - filling the entire working field - the wrong side is smeared with glue so that the carpet does not crumble. After the adhesive has dried, the front side of the product is trimmed with scissors. But some people like rugs with eyelets - so the product also looks nice and unique.
