Micro-Macrame Tutorials On YouTube. Stick Weaving Over Needles for Miniatures. Stick weaving is an ancient technique for simple weaving in the round or flat.
In full size a set of slightly pointed sticks with holes in the ends for yarn are used to weave narrow bands of fabric. The method is easily portable, and long lengths can be woven. In miniature, the same effect can be duplicated by using sewing needles with regular eyes and starting the technique with a holder made out of a recycled cork, or piece of balsa wood. The small scale placemat shown here was woven from Habu textiles Cotton Gima Yarn over black linen embroidery thread.
Next time I may use a slightly more substantial thread for the outer warp lines to help keep the correct weaving tension. Flat pieces like this one are quick to weave and can be combined to make wider pieces of fabric. Miniature Circular Stick Weaving Over Needles.
