Step-by-Step Instructions for Weaving the First Few Strips:

  1. Group the yarn: Group the yarn into sections of eight, with one extra string at the end to make the pattern symmetrical.
  2. Read the pattern chart: Each column on the pattern chart represents one warp string, and each row represents one weft string. The colored blocks indicate which strings to go over and which strings to go under.
  3. Weave the first row: Go under one warp string, over one warp string, under two warp strings, over three warp strings, and so on.
  4. Weave the second row: Go over three warp strings, under two warp strings, over one warp string, under two warp strings, and so on.
  5. Weave the third row: Go under two warp strings, over two warp strings, under three warp strings, over two warp strings, and so on.
  6. Continue weaving in this manner, following the pattern chart.

Tips:

  • Don’t pull the yarn too tightly.
  • Make sure that the pattern is symmetrical on both sides.
  • Use a thicker yarn to make the pattern more visible.
