Twills on Four

The number of twill patterns available on a 4 shaft loom is quite amazing. The three basic design variables: tie-up, threading and treadling will be broken down, explored and then rearranged into completely new and original designs. Learn how to blow them up, break them, undulate them and how the twist of your yarn can make them more distinct. Samples are woven in a wide variety of natural fibres.
