Workshop: Nordic-style comb weaving

Für Kammwebborten gibt es schon Belege aus der Hallstattzeit. Die Technik ist heute noch in den nordischen und östlichen Gebieten Europas verbreitet. Meist handelte es sich um Zierborten, die eine Braut für ihre Aussteuer herstellte. Man verzierte damit besonders die Fest- und Sonntagsgewänder.
Weaving preparation (tensioning the warp) and weaving technique are explained, and assistance is given for both. The basics of pattern creation, what to pay particular attention to
This workshop also focuses on the importance of paying attention to patterns. On this day, participants will begin a sampler book that will enable them to design and weave further patterns at home. Each participant will be given three different samples to choose from to take home.
The comb weaving tool is made of wood and can be brought along if you have one or purchased at cost price after registering for the course.
After registering, participants will receive a list of materials to be brought along and an e-mail to Natur-kulturfuehrer@freenet.de.
