Not so long ago masters were able to create a home woven products, yarn twisting with the help of special tools. Now, many prefer to buy ready-made decorations, wondering how you can create such beauty hands?
And we will not be surprised, and I will make yourself and please the family. Let's start with a simple pattern, tapestry, although the work may seem simple at first glance, and requires accuracy and patience.
We will need to prepare frames for photos and paintings. Fit only wooden, they are sold in stores for art or baguette workshops.
Base grid will need little upholstery studs with flat hat and a hammer to create linear. Rotate the back side of the frame top, with two opposing sides will do the markup - put an end to the places where we will drive studs. To a tree does not split, does not place them on a flat line, as it were, a bit staggered.
For tension as the basis for a durable fit mercerized cotton. This natural cotton, specially treated, resulting in the removal of natural fleece. The thread becomes a strong, soft and shiny, like a silk, does not sit down and not wrinkled. It is necessary to fix the thread on the first stud - good wrap, tie and secure the drop of glue. Next, stretch it to the first stud on the opposite side, wrap around him, pulling gently, and return to the other side to the next nail.
Repeat wraps and turns, until we arrive to the last nail. Finally fix the thread and tied and cut. To add a drop of adhesive strength. We had a handloom.
Take a large needle with a long and wide eye. It is best suited for a special yarn needle, metal or plastic. Tucked in her colored thread to begin with cotton, wool or acrylic medium thickness. Subsequently, when will gain some experience, we can use a fantasy yarn and thread of different texture and composition. The color chosen according to the drawing, which decided to create. And it is possible, and vice versa, to create a picture depending on the threads which we have, following his imagination.
We carry a needle and thread through the grid-based, passing alternately over and under the strands of the grid. In the opposite direction moving the needle, changing the "above" and "below" as to form a simple weave. Move the colored thread of extra needle to the bottom of the frame after each row.
On our simple picture depict mountain dark blue, gray or green. For the slope of Mount weave in the corresponding row on one loop less. If you print a picture on a piece of paper and put on the table under the frame, it will be easier to navigate when doing ubavki and enter a new thread.
If on top of the mountain with snow, we change the thread on white and reach the snowy peaks, locking end of the thread on the back side of the work. Depict clouds, sun and sky, the changing color of the thread and following the drawing.
For children and beginners there is a simpler way to create tapestries and woven decorative napkins. As a basis we use cardboard, on two opposite sides of the section taken. Vertical thread will fix alternately in these sections and the thread-weave of a different color are arranged horizontally in rows.
In the same way, you can make a funny little men, a panel with pompons and even pad pupa, where instead of the thread base to use cotton swabs.
Interesting tapestry formed by combining ready-made filaments and yarns of different materials, made independently. This strip may be of denim, knitted fabrics and wool fiber felting. Positioning can be horizontal or at a different angle, alternating by color and type of yarn.
See what the different tapestries create masters, using different positions and different types of yarn weaves, showing imagination
This manual work is highly valued around the world, and who knows - perhaps starting with a mini-tapestry on a piece of cardboard, you stanene wizard to create a real man-made miracle!
