Park Weaves

Park Weaves

Based on the Dr. William G. Bateman manuscript

Edited by Virginia I. Harvey

 Retirement provided Dr. Bateman with the opportunity to devote his time to studying and experimenting with weaving structures on his 8-harness table loom. Luckily for us he documented his explorations in a manuscript, which was published by the Shuttle Craft Guild in a series of monographs in the 1980s.

This issue is devoted to the park weave system, which utilizes one block as a tie down unit, and pattern blocks of three to twelve are explored.

The monograph includes 23 drafts and black and white photos of woven samples.

All drafts are for 8 or less harnesses.
