Freestyle Rag-Weaving for a Shoulder Bag

The beauty of freestyle weaving is that you don’t have to plan ahead very much! You simply weave, making choices and changes as you respond to the threads in front of you. For this bag, designer Dinah Rose picked up fabric strips at random, creating a pattern using a clasped-weft technique. While the project was originally written for a multi-shaft loom, it can easily be woven on a rigid-heddle loom by threading 1 end per dent in a 10-dent heddle.
