990 AD Salazar Slytherin

• Tablet weaving sampling
  • Theloomybin.com
    • 3 Strand Braid Pattern – didn’t work out
  • Card Weaving by Candace Crockett
    • Ram’s horn pattern – think I’m going to use for decorative trim at the neck of the tunic
    • Empty slot pattern – possibly to be used for hose garters, but I need some practice with this technique (where not all the holes in the cards have yarn through them, so there should be a weft pattern showing)
    • Combo narrow bands pattern – possibly for hem trim on the tunic or a belt, with some added columns – the pattern I wanted showed up on the “wrong” side? I’m going to try this again and reverse the threaded of the cards
    • Simple alternating thread sample – another belt possibility or hose garter possibility – easy to weave and easy to keep even
