Weaving a Saddle Blanket sample

It's been taking longer than expected to pull my weaving tutorials together, so in the meantime here's me sampling a saddle blanket design in 2/2 boundweave on a 4-shaft counterbalance loom. The warp & weft are both wool. It's a slow kind of weaving at about 50 picks per inch, but I love the freedom of design.
I'm still brand new to video editing, so bear with me as I figure things out. I'll remember to pull my hair back next time!

Hi. Could you do a PDF file for this pattern. I have been searching for a year or more for how to do saddle blankets. Please share your pattern. Thank you.

Really looking forward to your upcoming weaving tutorials. The mug rugs look so good I can't wait to try my hand at them. 😀

I love that design, is it possible for you to share the pattern? Saludos desde Colombia

Thank you! I make up this kind of design as I go, but I could turn it into a pattern. It is similar to one of the 'mug rug' patterns I have in mind to share at some point. Stay tuned...

Nice pattern. Is it the warping as rosepath for mug rug?

@wildgingerhandweaving4171 Жыл бұрын

Yes, it is! Rosepath threading at 6 ends per inch, just a lot wider.

@@wildgingerhandweaving4171thank you for this- I'm looking to weave my own saddle pad and was not clear on what draft you would use to get a similar design.

Hi there, do you manufacture for other businesses? I've been looking for a supplier?

@wildgingerhandweaving4171 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for your interest! Unfortunately I don't weave full-time and don't have the means to go into large scale production, although I would consider custom/bespoke work.

What's the set for warp and grist for both warp and weft

@wildgingerhandweaving4171 11 ай бұрын

The sett is 6 epi, same as in my mug rug videos. I'm using singles wool warp - not sure about the grist, as it was given to me unlabeled. I'm using it doubled here (two strands as one), but you wouldn't need to. The weft is 660 YPP wool. See here for details: www.yarnbarn-ks.com/Quebecoise-3-ply-Wool/productinfo/WY-QUEB3P-/

@@wildgingerhandweaving4171 Thank you so much!! I'm starting a saddle pad (cotton 8/4 warp doubled at 6epi) and am waffling between handspun or commercial weft. I'll be using one of your mug-rug patterns (from etsy) and hopefully it will be amazingly lovely! Thank you again for the reply.
