“I have been teaching inkle weaving for a number of years. After every class I hear ‘what’s next?’ The first ‘what’s next’ is to get some experience weaving. In the instructions, I’ve included tips that I find helpful for weaving. Each kit represents one of the patterns in our third collection of inkle bands, Bird Bands 2. A pattern booklet containing patterns for the entire collection will be available once the collection reaches 10 birds. I hope you enjoy weaving your inkle band.” ~ Joan
