Making
Prepare a cloth tape for the weft. As shown in the diagram, cut to 1 cm widths. The corners have also been cut back in the piece shown in the picture. Wind it into the shuttle.
Set up the warp.
Pass the shed stick through the even numbered strands of the warp yarn. With the shuttle, scoop the odd-numbered strands of warp yarn and pass it through them.
Weave firmly with the weaving comb.
Once weaved to the end, finish the weft.
Cut the warp thread along the back side of the loom, parallel to the centerline of the main body. Tie the fringe one by three strands and trim it to the length of your choice.
