This part of the tutorial will present the steps for weaving the “point up” arrowhead pattern. The headstick configuration has the warp strand to the right of the middle in the top layer of the shed. Weaving will start on the right side of the work-piece,
[NOTE] The interlocks on the right hand side of the work-piece are made with warp strands from the top layer of the shed. The interlocks on the left hand side of the work-piece are made with warp strands from the bottom layer of the shed. [NOTE] The weft strands from the two sides meet at the middle where they become the middle warp strands. |

Form the right hand side of row 1 weft strand interlock.
Place the weft strand in the top layer of the right hand side shed. |
|

Reverse the row 1 right hand side of the shed.
Work from the right hand edge of the work-piece to the middle of the work-piece. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Pass the left hand side row 1 weft strand through the left hand side shed.
Pass the weft strand through the open shed to the middle of the warp strands that will become the arrowhead designe. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Form the row 1 left hand side weft strand interlock.
Place the weft strand in the bottom layer of the left hand side shed. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Secure the row 1 middle warp strands.
Then place the right hand side weft strand in the bottom layer of the left hand side shed. Place the left hand side weft strand in the top layer of the shed. Check to see that the over/under configuration is maintained. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Reverse the shed on the left hand side of row 1.
Work from the left hand edge to the middle of the shed. Transfer the shed to the left index finger. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Set the row 1 weave.
Check individual strands to see that they are snug and even. [TIP] Use index finger as a beater. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Select the row 2 right right side weft strand.
Pass the weft strand through the open right hand side shed to the interlock in row 1. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Form the row 2 right side weft strand interlock.
Place the weft strand in the top layer of the shed. When the weft strand is placed in the top layer of the shed the weft strand becomes a warp strand. The interlocked warp strand becomes the next part of the row 2 right hand side weft strand. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Pass the row 2 weft strand to the middle.
The row 2 weft strand becomes the left middle warp strand when it is placed in the top layer of the shed Secure the left middle warp strand by placing the right middle warp strand in the bottom layer of the shed. Check to see if the over/under configuration is maintained. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Reverse the shed on the right hand side of row 2.
Work from the right hand edge of the work-piece to the middle of the work-piece. |
|
| Previous | Next |
| Transfer the side shed to the index finger of the right hand. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Pass the left hand side row 2 weft strand throught the left hand side shed to the row 1 interlock.
Then pass the weft strand through the open left hand side shed to the row 1 interlock. |
|
| Previous | Next |
Form the interlock in the left hand side of the row 2 weft strand.
Place the weft strand in the top layer of the left hand side shed. When the weft strand is placed in the top layer of the left hand side shed, the weft strand becomes a warp strand. The warp strand that was adjacent to the first interlock becomes the next part of the left hand side weft strand. |
|
| Previous | Next |
|
Pass the second part of the row 2 left weft strand through the shed to the middle of the work-piece.
Then secure the row 2 middle warp strands.
Then place the right hand side weft strand in the bottom layer of the right hand side shed. Place the left hand side weft strand in the top layer of the right hand side shed. Check to make sure that over/under configuration is maintained. When the row 2 weft strands are transfered to the right hand, the weft strands becomes the row 2 middle warp strands. |

| Previous | Next |
Reverse the left hand side shed of row 2 .
Work from the left hand edge of the work-piece to the middle of the work-piece. |
|

Set the row 2 weave.
Pull the layers of the shed in opposite directions. Check individual strands to see that they are snug and even. [TIP] Use index finger as a beater. |
