Weave Along with Elewys: Oseberg 12L1 Revisited

A second look at the Oseberg 12L1 tablet woven piece in my instructional series on how to do tablet weaving using an inkle loom. This video contains a pattern variation for a narrow band found at the Oseberg farm near Tønsberg in Vestfold county, Norway. The original was made of silk and measured 5 mm wide.

Pattern for this piece can be found on my blog: http://ladyelewys.carpevinumpdx.com/2....

Yarns:
Maysville Carpet Warp, which can be found at several different weaving supply places (I often use WEBS at www.yarn.com). It comes in more than 70 colors on an 800 yard spool for about $9, so it can be used in a number of projects and the price is very reasonable.
20/2 silk from Eowyn de Weaver on Etsy. Each cone is $30 and comes in 18 different colors. There are also small 100 yard spools that run $5 each and comes in more than 2 dozen colors.
Pearl cotton, size 8, which can be found is most craft stores in a bunch of colors.

Cards:
2 1/2" wide (63 mm) made on a 3D printer, a pattern designed by my husband. Free downloadable patterns of other tablets are available on Thingiverse (not my pattern--we are still working the kinks out of the design--https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:180...)


3 1/4" from Robin & Russ Handweavers (which are, unfortunately, out of business) or from Schacht Spindle Company, which run $8 for 25 cards. I love these because they are colored on the edges and they are thin but very durable. Similar cards by Lacis are available on Amazon.

Tea. Earl Grey. Hot.

Many thanks, again, go to my best friend, HL Aenor de Pessac, for her fabulous editing skills and encouragement to work on this project. You're AMAZING! I couldn't do this without you!
