Sometimes, you just have to take a step back and take a look at the skills that come before you can thread a needle and assemble the thing.
I hope you enjoy this deep dive into some tablet weaving (AKA card weaving). It has certainly been a while!
Fun fact though: This was the kind of thing I was known for in my reenactment group while I studied at university, so it isn't entirely unknown to me. But much like knitting, I struggle to figure out ways to make a weaving video interesting and engaging, since it involves a lot of repetition to get the desired result. I tried to go for a more story-based approach on this one. Did it work?

You've really inspired me to somehow incorporate the complexity of what beautiful craftwork our 'less technological' lineage got up to in one or two of the stories I'm writing. We constantly underestimate just how sophisticated homo sapiens (and our ancestral cousins before we didn't have any!) has been over time. We really do seem incapable of staying in one place, of living in homes devoid of artistry, and of not seeking out the novelty to be found in trying out new things and practices! I love this-- thank you so much for the thoughtful, meditative practice you show in this video. I'm a knitter and don't want to pick up anything new on the craft front, but I'm grateful to live in a time when I can watch you lovingly dip back into time, all from the cozy seat in my home!

I started my first tablet weave today, with just whatever leftover yarn I had lying around and tablets made from a cereal box, but I am immensely enjoying it despite the super simple pattern. Just watching a ribbon like this come together is incredible - my brain understands how it works, but I am still in awe watching it happen. Your video editing and voiceover also made for such a nice viewing experience!

Dang, now i want to do some tablet weaving again. I used to do it all the time and made woven belts, trims, decorations, bands etc. for me and everyone else from my norse medieval reenactment group. Mostly simple beginner patterns or Kivrim, cause i always did it while talking with visitors and tourists, who were really fascinated a lot (it's not that common in Germany, especially in the south-west, nowadays). I still have some of the more complex patterns printed out or drawn that i haven't done yet. Maybe I'll do one of them over winter period, for the new tunic that i'm sewing for my partner right now. Thank you so much for sharing this, you did so great on that pattern.

Memory is one of those skills that can be trained to be amazing. Take for example mail carriers. A typical mail route in the US is about 750 houses, with about 60-70% of those houses having more than one last name. Nowadays, 150+ packages on a route is common for a day, along with mail. When you're new, it takes months to truly learn a single route, but by the time you've been introduced to your 4th or 5th route, you can memorize all the addresses in order in a single day, along with delivering all the packages by memory alone. Within a year, you know every route in the city by memory, and the routes you do most you know every last name at every house, including maiden names. (Based on my experiences in a suburb of a large city) I can believe these artisans had the patterns engraved in their minds like a second nature, forged from decades of practice. The mind is a muscle!

I think that is absolutely possible! But this always makes me wonder. Were there dedicated weavers or was weaving something you did in between other chores to make life go round? I do not know, but knowledge of rural life many years ago here in Norway would lead me to maybe believe it is the latter. One of many skills you accumulate over the years. I don't know how that would affect your working memory as opposed to doing the same thing or walking the same route every day. Maybe they were just that awesome. It wouldn't surprise me though. :)

I read the article you linked and I find experimental archaeology like this fascinating, especially how they experimented to figure out how exactly it was done. Your comment about our current lack of understanding regarding pattern recording and transmission intrigues me deeply. I can imagine whole communities sat, singing songs and weaving. How they might incorporate instructions into a poem, or a song, or if they were recorded another way lost to time. Fascinating to think about. Thank you for this video, it was a pleasure to watch. I really appreciate how much credit you give artisans of the past, acknowledging their skill. I can tell you really love history and your craft.

This is unbelievably wonderful, with every new fact I had to pause the video and try to fathom how on earth such incredible mastery was possible. Thank you so much for all the information you shared, along with the gorgeous pattern and beautiful weaving you did. I thought if you're not already aware, you might be interested to know that singing is a much more effective method of passing information along withour significant error accumulation. The most effective known method is still used by Indigenous groups in Australia, and requires three generations - let's call them grandmother, mother, and daughter. The mother teaches the song and craft to the daughter while the grandmother listens and corrects if necessary. If they are especially lucky, by the time the daughter is teaching her own daughter she may have both her mother and grandmother to listen and support her. The middle generation still has the strength and agility to show and teach, the youngest generation is best able to learn, and the oldest generation has spent their life with the knowledge memorized and can ensure no errors are passed down. The process is truly awe-inspiring.
@KristineVike
@KristineVike Жыл бұрын
I was aware that singing and rhythm is much easier to remember and thus pass on to the next generation, but I had not had it described in so much detail considering generations and the very conscious passing of knowledge like that before! That is really cool and makes a whole lot of sense.

I am interested in understanding how you set up your warp. You seem able to maintain the tension perfectly, yet you must be able to put it down and return to it whenever the cat needs attention. I love this pattern - your version of it is very beautiful.
@KristineVike
@KristineVike Жыл бұрын
I have the warp secured at the end point to something (like a hook or a table leg), and then the other end of the warp is secured to a belt around my waist, so I maintain the tension with my body. When I need to put it down I secure the cards in their position with a large safety pin (you can also use a long needle and some thread) and then just unhook it from my belt. I tried a small loom-like contraption a while back and actually prefer maintaining the tension myself, as I can make minute adjustments as necessary.

I've weaved with tablets using a slightly finer thread before (one plie of a six-plie embroidery thread, i think is what its called?), once with tablets that were made out of playing cards and twice with wooden tablets that for the second time some were still somewhat unfinished with a slightly rougher egde and i had trouble weaving for more than roughly 30 centimetres before the threads ripped (the 30 cm one was with the wooden, smooth-edged tablets, the rougher edges ripped the threads after just ca 15 cm). the weaved band is a perfect width and thickness to use as a book ribbon :) knowing all of that, it makes it even more impressive to me, what has been accomplished 2500 years ago! the tablet edges and surfaces would have had to be really really smooth. the complexity of the pattern is also incredible, so far ive finished only less complex (4 forwards-4 backwards) patterns and had to give up my first and so far only attempt at a slightly more complex ram-horns pattern. your work is absolutely impressive!

Reading and writing likely takes up a good part of our capacity. Some scientific analysis indicates that it coopts and repurposes some mechanisms in our brain responsible for quick and accurate memorys. The increased plasticity required for cromprehending and froming images and concepts from not only language, but additinally the somewhat seperate skill in writing and reading taking up capacity from areas originally responsible for quick and accurate memory retention. This is one explanation why our primate realtives feature a vastly superior short term memory.

Craftsmen of the past(and some current) used bone for burnishing leather(smoothing the edges) and creasing paper for book making. The great thing about bone smoothing tools is that they get smoother(so better) with use. So cards of bone could be great for delicate card weaving.

Regarding how would an ancient person might have remembered the patterns? I wonder if they just kept a cashe of "samples" that they could translate to patterns. Also (just a thought) could they have used a wooden peg board with holes to insert removable pegs of different woods (to represent different colors and to make patterns - just guessing). I think ancient craftspeople had to have amazing memorization ability too. Thanks for this amazing video, Kristine! I have spent a lifetime doing various crafts, knitting crocheting, sewing, etc. etc., and yet had never heard of this art. I got to buy some Chinese ethnic minority clothing that had these woven "ribbons" on them when I teaching in China in 1986. I always wondered how they had made them, being that they came down from a mountain in Kunming.

I had never seen this done with wooden tablets- I learned on ones made of icecream container lids with hole punched holes.

Takk for fin video, både i betydningen pen og informativ! Jeg kom over brikkevev og leste litt om det for en stund siden, men å se hvordan det faktisk gjøres gjorde det enklere å skjønne enn å bare prøve å se det for meg.

Så bra ting ble litt klarere! Da er det jo bare å hoppe i det og gjøre et forsøk. Det var slik jeg lærte mest i begynnelsen. 😁

Oh wow this is so cool. I saw those types of slavic looking ribbons on etsy and was wondering how on earth they are made by hand. It looks complicated

It’s quite fun once you get into it, to see the pattern grow in front of you! 😊
