Notes

I have been reading about an old card weaving technique called  Hochdorf, for the place where the tomb of a Celtic noble was discovered. The tomb contained card woven texties with a pebble-like appearance. This led me to the website of Kurt Laitenberger who has been weaving Celtic knots in this Hochdorf card weaving technique. The technique produces a motif on both faces of the weaving but they are not structurally the same.

I loved Mr Laitenberger's knotwork bands and decided to see if I could adapt the designs to Andean pebble weave and it worked! I think that a guitar strap would look spectacular in red and black with these designs.

More details and references to articles on the Hochdorf technique can been found in my blog post for this week....
