God this is hitting literally all my current interests! Spinning, weaving on a rigid heddle loom, and historical textiles!! I’m so glad I found your channel! 😄
The Swedish side of my family is from Västergötland and I've been specifically looking to do a fiber project based on historical finds from the area! This is perfect. I really appreciate the info on how to make a rigid heddle work for a 2x2 twill, too, since the only loom I own is a 24" ashford.
This blew my mind! Your whole channel blows my mind, actually, but especially the fabric ones, watching you turn a fuzz pile into something I recognize, with your HANDS! It's like magic.
Try double width double weaving on a smaller loom if Bertha is not available again. Thanks for your videos! They are so interesting and my daughter and I enjoy them so much! We think you are such a lovely spirit too!!!!
Fascinating video - & so pleased for you that you re-created the historical cloth & pattern so well. I'd love to see you do more on houndstooth and puppytooth! Thank you!
ho my god thank you Eve for the video. this is so cool. the result is brilliant. can't wait to see the one you are going to make with the big loom. thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your work. 🥰🥰🥰
So cool, Evie! I think you’re lucky that Mark was using Big Bertha, because you did some wonderful problem solving AND came out with a wonderful match to the cape fabric. Way to go! I’m planning to use my rigid heddle to try a twill weave, too. I watched a video class that explained how to use 2 heddles, one pick-up stick, and one string heddle to get all the sheds needed. I’m going to start with dish towels, and maybe go for enough yardage to make a summer top. We’ll see!
These sound like great projects! Some day I'll get the second heddle for my harp, but you are so right about the fun I had problem solving this puzzle! 💖🧶😊
I think houndstooth patterns vaguely remind me of a dog's carnassial teeth. So, not the prominent canine teeth, but the steak-knife teeth in the back of the dog's mouth. (Sort of where we have molars to grind food, they have carnassials to slice meat.) But that's just me. This is a spectacular video; I appreciate your efforts at experimental archeology, and I really appreciate the way you share the experience with us!
My mom had a few sayings for a project like this (where you changed technique part way through, but it's still same, same). "Finished is always better than perfect" and "you can't see it from a galloping horse". But my favorite mom quote for any project will forever be "if someone is looking for mistakes, they're probably not your friend."
I just found you, and I am enjoying watching your history playlist. I have been a fiber artist that knit and crocheted my whole life, but I am currently entering into spinning ans weaving. Watching your history videos makes feel connected to a legacy of humans who have perfected and mastered this art. ❤️❤️❤️
Are you friends with Sally Pointer? She's the only other TH-cam spinner/weaver I know that does historical textiles. She also does stone age crafts and herbology. Can you recommend any other channels of practical historians like this?
I put a detailed description of how I set up the houndstooth on my loom including the string heddle set up and order of the sheds in the video description. I would love to learn about other ways people have solved the rigid heddle twill obstacles! Also, that puppy! He's not mine, but I would take him home if I could! 🥺🐕❤🧶✨
@@dianesawyerdooley4424 They do in the newer looms. Almost all my equipment is vintage/second hand, so mine is the older model. I got it used in 2014 I think.
My rigid heddle is by Ashford (NZ) and comes with two heddles. It's a lot easier to do twills and other four shaft patterns with twin heddles than with pickup sticks and thread heddles, but it's even easier and faster on a four shaft loom.
wrong! the holes were dragons teeth...i'm so dense i just chose to use the reed as my spacer/beater and do 4 heddle rods behind it, warp string1 to heddle 1 warp2 heddle 2 etc... bad idea. cutting these rods off now!!!
Hi Evie, hope you're all OK. Love the History of both the cloak & houndstooth pattern. Love how you got 2 variation on your scarf. Happy Spinning Take care & stay safe. Love & hugs to all of you. Ps good to see Mark weaving on Bertha. Xx
@@JillianEve Hi Evie, I'm glad Mark's weaving, but can understand you wanting Bertha back to yourself. He might make a mess up then you have to sort it out, be one way to get her back 🤣🤣 Hope you don't have to wait too long. Take care & stay safe Love & a Big Hug to you. Jen xxxx
Wow - this is just fascinating! I'm going to try puppy tooth as my next weaving project (love that name, and the corgi in your video :D) I don't think I'm quite advanced enough to "mod my rigid heddle" like you did!
This was a wonderful video!!! I love your production and now I'm super motivated to learn more about ancient textiles and their dramas 😂 I also had no idea that there are two different kinds of houndstooth and I'm stoked to give them a try someday ❤
I would take that puppy home in a heartbeat! 😍🐕 I think the twill and tweed end up being interchangeable in a confusing way. Maybe someone else has a better explanation and can jump in or correct me here. I think that tweed describes the yarn. It has different colored bits of fluff in the yarn that give it that speckled appearance. The cloth it was woven into often had a twill structure. The term tweed was substituted for twill to describe a particular twill fabric made with a tweed yarn even though not all twill is made from tweed. I think??? Possibly??? If someone else knows, I hope they can jump in!
I very much enjoyed your video, and have to say I was intrigued by the 'murder mystery', which I think might have been a ritual sacrifice with the cloth used to hold the body's life force, as it was usually the blood that was the offering, as that was seen to make the body hold onto life. So cuts were made to the sacrificial victim, the blood draining into the cloak, which then was carefully placed into the water and held down with selected stones. Water had an important role in Germanic/Norse belief systems, linking it to the afterlife and the Goddesses and Gods connected. I was really surprised that houndstooth weave wasn't of common knowledge to you and your audience, as it is quite common in Europe and makes a regular appearance in fashion clothing. The size of number of warps and wefts per colour doesn't need to be restricted to 4 but can go up in size for as much as one likes.i have seen houndstooth weaves where each colour band was approx 2 inches, with very marked and detailed 'hound's teeth'. The pattern is usually woven black and white, though I have seen some quite loud and eye-twisting day-glow/neon colours used. I hope your project woven on your large loom was successful.
That's fun, in German this pattern is called "Hahnentritt" instead of houndstooth... hard to translate, but maybe something like faucet's kick or track. :D
Have you considered doing a "hound's-tooth check" but with more than two colours? Off the top of my head, I've only ever seen the pattern using two colours but I think multiple colours could produce an interesting effect. Actually, there would be all sorts of interesting effects that could be produced with multiple colours.
currently hem stitching the end of my first weaving project!! Next up is definitely houndstooth. I’m gonna buy the kromski double heddle piece to do twill too.
Wow, I associate the houndstooth pattern with stuck up English country and aristocracy… To know this pattern was already around in the Iron Age gives me so much joy, and I am thoroughly impressed with our European ancestors!
I'm going to lie awake wondering why the murderers concealed the evidence of the cloak separate from the victim's body. Maybe the killer used it to hide himself (or herself) during the getaway, and later sunk it in the bog! We Scandinavians are a dark and gloomy people.
If it is my handspun yarn, I will un-weave which is basically everything I just did, but slower because I have to wind it back up too. If it is commercial yarn and im not playing yarn chicken, I'll clip the ends back to the mistake and rip it out rather than un-weaving. Either way it's about as fun as frogging knitting! 🙈🐸🧶😄
I know nothing about weaving at all but find this totally captivating! I came across this channel when I was looking for advice on how to start with drop spindle spinning. Thank you for the videos!
So cool! I love houndstoth as a pattern. I don't see the tooth inspiration, but I love the look of it. I had no idea it is such an old pattern. Thanks for sharing!
Wow. You did an amazing job replicating that fabric! Starting from spinning the yarn! Love it. I also love how you seem more concerned that the cloak got holes in it than you are about the WEARER getting holes in them!! 😁Thanks for another wonderful history video! The string heddles were genius... if not efficient!
was the fiber you spun for this from the february paradise fibers club shipment? i'm tempted to use mine for an attempt at learning houndstooth on my backstrap. i'm glad i'm not the only one who fondles my fabrics (woven, knit, patchwork, etc) and marvels at the drape and feel and minute detail. it's not something non-fiber people understand... but if you get it, you really get it, right? :D
Yes, I absolutely get it! 💖 This was the fiber from PF's February box, yes! I would love to see how your back strap weaving turns out! Try it and see what you make! 😊💖🧶
Wonderful spinning and weaving! Thank you for the historical information. I am 1/2 Swedish and 1/2 Norwegian and my husband is all Swedish. Always fun to connect back to roots.
Do you have a master class? And do you have a linen scarf project on video . I just got all the pieces to my 48'' ashford heddle loom with a 15 DPI heddle reed and bougt some linen 50 g balls . And want to learn to weave my first item . And your so discriptive
Thank you, and congratulations on your loom! I have spinning classes on my Patreon, but not weaving. I'm spinning flax with my distaff and spindles though and I plan to have linen projects coming up in the next few months. 💖
Just caught some of your older videos, and love that you also play Minecraft. Don't you wish the llamas (and now the goats) would be shearable? Looking forward to more of your videos!
I have a bulldog and she has one tooth on the bottom that always sticks up out of her mouth. I call it her csnaggle tooth" lol. She's not a "Hound" unless you generalize all dog as hounds 😀 nice work on that, it's beautiful!
You are probably already aware of this, but you can use pick up sticks (not the children's game, ha) to do the other two sheds on the rigid heddle. You can also get another rigid heddle and a double block from Kromski, if your loom came with a single (I forget when they started putting in the double block as standard). 32's ARE a tad pricey, but then so are most weaving accessories.
Thank you! Yes, mine is the older Harp, pre 2014 so I only have the single heddle option, although I did upgrade the pawl system to the new metal one. I'm working on a Viking Age costume and I'm going to build a warp weighted loom for that so the string heddles are actually great practice! 😊🧶💖
I love your channel but it made me love it so much more when you started to do all the historical things! Ever since getting into weaving/spinning ive been reading and listening to anything i can on it and i love seeing you recreate or show how tools are used. Cant wait to see more!
I have a soft spot for the Houndstooth design. I wore a jacket with the design on my journey to my honeymoon destination ✨ ☺! I love the colour simplicity and design. I remember making a beeline to it in the store (talking 1989 😉). It is a type of Tartan, I presume ?? I'm wanting to do historical research about it now. Love your channel 🧶🎨🧥
Have you heard of the Egtved girl? It isn't woven fabric, but woolen cord skirt and a woven blouse. And she is a grave find...both reasons I didn't think of her. But I found a documentary about the find on Amazon prime and so I thought I would just mention her, bc it is a very cool find.
This is so outrageously cool! Too bad my husband is a car nerd - our hobby budgets have zero crossover so it'll take that much longer to save for a loom. 🤣😭
I really like the theme of this video. Could you please do more like this? The reason I got into fiber crafting was because I really appreciate how historic/ancient people clothe themselves. I like seeing wool turn into yarn and wove into fabric; all in one video.
God this is hitting literally all my current interests! Spinning, weaving on a rigid heddle loom, and historical textiles!! I’m so glad I found your channel! 😄
Wonderful! I have so many more projects coming up! 🧶🐑✨
Same
Same here ❤😊
Yay for historical projects!

Thank you so much! 😊❤🐕🧶✨
. Great heddle Patterning.

A houndstooth jacket project sounds amazing! Beautiful work as always.
Then I can walk around in my jacket and say I'm Iron age fashionable! 😄💖🧶

We need to see Mark's weaving journey!!!! And the finished weavings!
I agree! I'll try to get him on one of the livestreams! 💖🧶
You should be a fabric historian and replicate pieces for museums!
That would be amazing! 💖
Try double width double weaving on a smaller loom if Bertha is not available again. Thanks for your videos! They are so interesting and my daughter and I enjoy them so much! We think you are such a lovely spirit too!!!!
I like that idea! 💖🧶
Fascinating video - & so pleased for you that you re-created the historical cloth & pattern so well. I'd love to see you do more on houndstooth and puppytooth! Thank you!

Inventive Weaving on a little loom covers twill - two heddles. I'm still working on reading that book.
I want to read it, but haven had a chance yet. It's at my library so I'll look it up next time I get books. Thanks!
My mom had a few sayings for a project like this (where you changed technique part way through, but it's still same, same). "Finished is always better than perfect" and "you can't see it from a galloping horse". But my favorite mom quote for any project will forever be "if someone is looking for mistakes, they're probably not your friend."
This is absolutely a-ma-zing. O_O So much research, dedication, time in this project.
I'm in awe of your skills. Please, do other projects like this.
Thank you so much and yes, I have lots more history projects in the works! I'm so glad you are enjoying it! 🧶💖😊

Hi Evie, thankyou so much for the Heart Reply.
One straight back to you❤

String heddles are so much easier than doing pickup sticks for every other shed. Love the creativity for problem-solving.
Wow - this is just fascinating! I'm going to try puppy tooth as my next weaving project (love that name, and the corgi in your video :D) I don't think I'm quite advanced enough to "mod my rigid heddle" like you did!

Well, you can use the scarf to fish out weavers in public - those who notice, are our people!
WOW you are, so lucky to have all that knowledge.
Its the white part that looks like the fang, pointing down.
I love that this pattern is named after a different animal in so many languages. In German it's "Hahnentritt" after the footprint of a rooster.
In French: "Pied-de-poule", Hen's foot
Your videos are a delightful watch
How exciting I love seeing solutions for weaving. Love the pick ups using strings and sticks! This makes me want to try new techniques on my loom.
Yes! New techniques and experiments! 💖🧶😊
What's the difference between a twill and a tweed? I love this project and the history behind it. OMG I thought you bought a new puppy lol.
I would take that puppy home in a heartbeat! 😍🐕 I think the twill and tweed end up being interchangeable in a confusing way. Maybe someone else has a better explanation and can jump in or correct me here. I think that tweed describes the yarn.

@@JillianEve I'm pretty sure that's the right explanation 😊 tweed is the yarn, twill is the cloth.
STABS!!!! POTENTIAL MURDER!!!!
CLOAK ALL CUT UP!!!!
😳😳😂😂
That cloak was innocent!!!! What was its crime?!!!!!😂😂😂
I wonder if the original was plied cloth?
I ordered a toy weaving machine to keep and make things with it, and it's smaller than yours
Weaving is wonderful in every loom size! 🧶💖😊
Beautiful twill table runner, and I love the history of the cloth!
Fascinating 😇🦹🏾♂️🌷🏳️🌈🧕🏿💕👌🏾😍
Glad you enjoyed it! 🎉💖🧶😊
You're awesome and as adorable as the name "puppy tooth", Jillian :) I know so much more about my favorite pattern now!
Hound’s Tooth check is called Pied de Poule, chicken’s foot, in France!
I love hearing about the different names for common textile things! 🐔🐔🧶💗
Can't you just add another heddle? Kromski's can use two heddles at once, one behind the other.
Two heddles can do a 3/1 twill, but 3 heddles are needed for a 2/2 twill so I wanted to try the string heddles. 😊🧶💜
Eeee loom twins! Sadly mine's in another country.
I hope you can reunite and weave again soon! 💖🧶
You are such a nerd and I mean that in the nicest way. Thank you so much for sharing your passions with us!
🤓🤓🤓💗
great project!!! ...
Have you heard of tabby jacks?? I think they’d help you with weaving more complicated patterns
I very much enjoyed your video, and have to say I was intrigued by the 'murder mystery', which I think might have been a ritual sacrifice with the cloth used to hold the body's life force, as it was usually the blood that was the offering, as that was seen to make the body hold onto life.

To know this pattern was already around in the Iron Age gives me so much joy, and I am thoroughly impressed with our European ancestors!
Very cool
Thank you for this video. Great to make a cup of tea and just sit & watch. How informative 👍🧶
This is so fascinating! I'm wondering if you thought about using a second heddle for your twill? Although your solution IS ingenious!
amazing!
I'm going to lie awake wondering why the murderers concealed the evidence of the cloak separate from the victim's body. Maybe the killer used it to hide himself (or herself) during the getaway, and later sunk it in the bog! We Scandinavians are a dark and gloomy people.
I’ve heard puppy tooth called simplified hounds tooth and pinwheels
How hard would it be to take out a mistake in weaving?
If it is my handspun yarn, I will un-weave which is basically everything I just did, but slower because I have to wind it back up too. If it is commercial yarn and im not playing yarn chicken, I'll clip the ends back to the mistake and rip it out rather than un-weaving. Either way it's about as fun as frogging knitting! 🙈🐸🧶😄

3:15 A hound’s molar will leave a mark looking somewhat like each one of the squares on the cloth. Or parallelograms, if you will.
Ohhh! 🧶💖
I have a bulldog and she has one tooth on the bottom that always sticks up out of her mouth. I call it her csnaggle tooth" lol. She's not a "Hound" unless you generalize all dog as hounds 😀 nice work on that, it's beautiful!
I've seen the pattern translated or referred to as "Dog tooth" so I think bulldog's count! 🐕❤😊
Putting the cloak on is such a human thing
Lol down here in Alabama, we call that houndstooth pattern "roll tide"! 🤣🤣 great job!
I saw that in my research too! I could have made a 10 hour video just talking about this one pattern! 🤣
You could always add a second heddle
Omg corgi !! My corgi and I watched this together. She’s a fan of sheep.
Oh, I love corgies! 💖🐕💖
Sooo cool! Tonight I am starting to assemble my Ashford 24" :)
Oh fun! I can't wait to see what you make! 💖🧶
I see the tooth!
Definitely do more houndstooth Evie--Christmas is coming!!
Haha! You are right about the time required to make handspun, handwoven gifts! Have to start in April... 💖🧶😊
You are a weaving genius!!!

I did a goose eye twill with pick up sticks a while back. It was actually more fun than I thought it would be! 😄
yaasssss😁😁😁
I love the history! You could hear the pain in your voice when you said they tried on the cloak. These videos are so good
I guess their successors made up for it by including so much information about the cloak, enabling people to reproduce the fabric accurately.
I love your channel but it made me love it so much more when you started to do all the historical things! Ever since getting into weaving/spinning ive been reading and listening to anything i can on it and i love seeing you recreate or show how tools are used. Cant wait to see more!

Thank you! He's my seizure alert and response, gluten detection service dog! He is my amazing friend, Oakley.
@@punkydoggear8172 Good boy, Oakley! 🐕🦺❤
This is so amazing 👏
Ha! #Bogcore! I love houndstooth and I had no idea it went back so far. Thank you for this awesome project....I can't wait to see what you do next!
Any ideas? I'm really eyeing the Woman from Huldremose's skirt for more #bogcore, but I'm open to suggestions of anything pre industrial revolution. 🤔
@@JillianEve You should totally do Huldremose! The colors on that would be really cool to see in real life and not all brown with age.
Have you heard of the Egtved girl? It isn't woven fabric, but woolen cord skirt and a woven blouse. And she is a grave find...both reasons I didn't think of her. But I found a documentary about the find on Amazon prime and so I thought I would just mention her, bc it is a very cool find.
@@ThimbleAndPlume thank you! I will look into it. 💖🧶🪡🧵
This is so outrageously cool! Too bad my husband is a car nerd - our hobby budgets have zero crossover so it'll take that much longer to save for a loom. 🤣😭
Mark WAS a car nerd... I converted him! 😁
@@JillianEve this is the kind of hope I need! 🤣
@@Lucy-vx2ls 🤣 Good luck!
I really like the theme of this video. Could you please do more like this? The reason I got into fiber crafting was because I really appreciate how historic/ancient people clothe themselves. I like seeing wool turn into yarn and wove into fabric; all in one video.
I have plans for more spinning and weaving videos in the future! 🧶🐑✨
This turned out super cute🥰
Thank you! 😊💖🧶
Great job!
Thank you!
Amazing!
Thank you! 🧶😊💖
Love it!
Yay! 💖😊🧶
