  Assembled of individually worked panels sewn together, this skirt is embellished with an ever-shifting array of patterns. Although Kuba men are responsible for preparing and weaving raffia, Kuba women decorate the cloth with imagination and artistry. To make a skirt of this size, several women from the same extended family would contribute different sections. Raffia textiles have long been an important part of Kuba artistic production. At the turn of the century, when this skirt was made, European visitors to the kingdom commented on the richly patterned raffia textiles that were worn and displayed at public festivals and funerals.

  Plaids and checks. These two words often show up together, but they are not actually interchangeable. They refer to do different types of patterns. Before we get into the differences between a plaid and a check, it’s important to know both words traditionally describe a woven cloth. So, let’s start by talking about weaving. Plaids and checks are both designs historically made as woven cloth.  And to understand woven cloth patterns, you need to know the basics about weaving. Weaving is a process of creating fabric by interlacing two yarn systems, the warp and the weft. The warp yarns run lengthwise through a fabric and are wound onto a loom. The weft yarns are put in one at a time by a weaver, crosswise through the fabric. The two yarn systems interlace at right angles to each other. The weaving process is the same, whether done by a person sitting at a loom or by a mechanized loom. Now, let’s get back to plaids and checks. Many fabrics are woven on a solid color warp, but pl...

Abstract At the end of the chapter Spirals interwoven in ipadge basket trays among the Makhuwa (Mozambique), two examples of baskets from the Desana (Colombia, Brazil) and the Yekuana (Venezuela) were presented where a series of interlocked plaited spirals. In this chapter further examples will be presented, coming from the Yombe, of twill plaited strip and plane patterns with series of spirals.      The Yombe are one of the Kongo ethnic groups who inhabit the area along the Lower Congo river, today located in the extreme west of the Democratic Republic of Congo [formerly Zaire] and neighbouring parts of Angola and the Republic of Congo. Elsewhere (Gerdes, 1999 [pp. 126-137], 2000, 2004), I analysed several aspects of finite designs, pattern formation and transformation, and of symmetries on mats made by Yombe women. A very interesting collection of Yombe mats, produced at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, is kept at the Royal Museum for Central Africa (RMCA, ...

 * harness 6 blocks,. Pattern threadling variation on speeder Web. One of the surest ways  way for the Weaver to determine whether or not he really understand  a technique is to experiment with it .  Trying out out variation threadling and materials. th results are not are not always just what the weaver  may have had in mind but they had at least give some play to his latent creative ability. Sample 9( fig.30) is threaded on the same short  draft have sample (8)and is given to you for weaving student  to test his ability to reproduce the piece without benefit of directions. In addition to working out the treadling  for the sample, it is suggested that the weaver try original threadling of his own,  Keeping in mind the uses to wishch they could. Further developments of thesummer and winter weave are discussed under the secton or short draft. The borders in figure 340 suggest  design from which to weave borders for apron, skirts, bags, d...
