How do you turn a woven design idea into an actual weaving draft? 🧶 In this viewer-requested weaving tutorial, Melissa walks through the process of analyzing a design and translating it into a workable weaving pattern. Learn how to “pick apart” a design visually and develop the threading, treadling sequence, tie-up, and drawdown needed to create your own weaving draft. Whether you’re learning to design your own weaving projects or strengthening your understanding of weaving drafts, this tutorial offers practical insight into the design process behind handwoven textiles.
