Talking About Overshot

About the only 'weaving' I did today, was getting ready for a program I am giving the first Tuesday in March.

I am going to try to explain about a way to merge two overshot drafts into a new eight shaft draft. Alternating colors from repeat to repeat across the weft. Or maybe change up the tie-ups to have one motif be woven rose fashion the other star fashion. Or maybe just a plain weave area alternating with an overshot area...........




Really quite simple, once you understand what has been done. The trick will be to explain how my brain will tell them so their brains will understand me. Sometimes a hard thing to do. But I do have the Weaver's article to help pave the way.
