Weaving the False Satin Damask Pickup

In this video I weave the False Satin Damask Pickup I wound the warp for in my previous video. I'll show all the steps you need to follow to weave any "picture" you can graph.
Damask is a satin weave where the pattern is created by shifting from warp-faced satin blocks to weft-faced satin blocks across the surface. The resulting pattern is formed by small squares. Satin requires a minimum of 5 shafts which results in a 4/1 structure. False Satin (as is the case here) is woven as a 3/1 broken twill threaded 1234 and treadled 1324. To get a weft faced weave, the tie-up raises 1 shaft on each treadle. Alternately, to get a warp faced weave, a separate tie-up raises 3 shafts on each treadle. This project uses an additional 2 treadles to raise either shafts 2 & 3 or 1 & 4. In my project, the pickup is done when 1 of those 2 treadles are pressed and the weaving is done using the 3/1 twill tie-up. This effectively makes the pattern appear as a warp faced weave (raising 3 shafts in the patterned area). The pattern as I tied it up uses 10 treadles, but it can be accomplished with 6 treadles by pressing 2 treadles at the same time.

Amazing! You are a weaving warrior. Beautiful technique

[@tangledwebsweaving]

Thank you! 😊 This was some of the hardest weaving I've done. I kept getting skipped threads because my shed is fairly small. Thanks for watching.

[@dawnoverholt6877]

Thank you for the tip using the camera. The weaving I am doing now I am have issues with the left side of the shed not opening clearly all the time.

[@tangledwebsweaving]

I'm glad you found it helpful. I discovered this trick when I was weaving a triple width piece and the set was 60 epi (20 epi/layer)! It really helped. I've used it a lot since then.

Super interesting and beautifully done...thank you

[@tangledwebsweaving]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for watching.

Beautiful! What size is the graph paper?

[@tangledwebsweaving]

Thank you very much! The graph is 125 squares wide, which equals 21" of weaving width. There are 4 threads per square in both the warp and weft. Hope that answers your question.

[@kanika3790]

How did you print the graph paper with the dog? Is it a free program?

[@tangledwebsweaving]

I used an online program called Stitch Fiddle (www.stitchfiddle.com/en). They have a free version that allows you to upload a picture and it will convert it to a graphed image. It's not perfect but then you can manipulate which squares you want colored in and fine tune the image. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

No weaving draft. How was it threaded. What's the tie up.

[@tangledwebsweaving]

This is a copywrited pattern but much of the threading details are in the description along with a link to the original pattern. Thanks for watching.

[@chrisking9245]

I didn't watch the whole video as it's a waste of time if noone knows what treadles 1 is tied to 😢
