The things you can find on a google search -- in this case, a nifty bit of software that allows one to chart and *model* a cardweaving pattern. Guntram's Tabletweaving Thingy is such a wonderful toy for crafters. It's very versatile, too, because it charts threaded-in, double-faced, brocade, or twist-patterned cardweaving.

( It even makes pictures! )Also, check out the gallery, and the prototype metal tablet (pretty! I want some!)

Yesterday, I demonstrated cardweaving (aka tabletweaving) at the Bethesda Public Library. My guild Potomac Craftsman, has a display at the library for the next few months, and every other Saturday, guild members will be demonstrating various skills in there in the afternoon.

Thanks to twistedchick for taking the photos.
