Notes:

I started weaving this band just because I wanted to try a period-authentic draft and I wanted to try out a 2-pack weaving pattern. Once I got it going, I realized it was a little wide for a belt for me, so I settled on a belated birthday gift for my husband. Belt fittings were purchased from www.quietpress.com

Raymond does good work, especially for the price! I've always been impressed with his selection, and he just keeps adding.
