My ebook on Andean Pebble Weave is available now on WeaveZine as a downloadable pdf. I have been working for many months on this and it is crammed with step-by-step photos, diagrams and charts on my favorite Andean pick up techniques. It is double faced ad here the indigenous weavers use it to weave both traditional and contemporary designs-geometric figures, animals and human figures on the characeristic spotted background. It is used to adorn carrying cloths, coca bags, belts and ponchos.
.
The above design is Guarani from the lowlands of Bolivia and I used it to decorate a guitar strap.
It is one of the faster pick up techniques to execute as it uses two sets of string heddles and is partly loom controlled.
I hope you will take a look and consider buying a copy so we can maybe organize a weave along when I get back home.
