This is a work in progress as I try to extract all the useful links to resources – products, sites, articles etc that I have included in my posts for the last two years or so and gather them all here in one place. Hopefully I will be able to add three or four new links to this page each week. I hope that you find it useful!

Hi Ingrid,
I hear that your braiding workshop is coming up soon and you will be having some of our gang there. I hope it all goes well. It is bound to be a lot of fun.

Laverne,
Do you have any documentation on how to wrap your heddle strings while making your warp chain? I know that the Montagnard peoples do it this way and it seems very sensible to me. I wanted to give it a try but am having a hard time figuring out the steps of the process from the pictures I found online. Any help you can offer is much appreciated.
Thank you,

Hi Burleigh, I put a video on Youtube showing and explaining the process. It is here:
If you also Google “Rhade warping” you will find the video I took of Montagnard weaver Ju Nie warping. You can watch my explanation first and then watch her doing it. She is so fast!
