Tablet weaving
Tablet Weaving (often card weaving in the United States) is a weaving technique where
tablets, also called 'cards', are used to create the shed the weft is passed through. The
technique is limited to narrow work such as belts, straps, or garment trim.
The origins of this technique go back at least to the early Iron age. Examples have been
found at Hochdorf, Germany, and Apremont, France. Tablet-woven bands are commonly
found in Iron age graves and are presumed to be standard trim for garments among
various peoples, including the Vikings.
As the materials and tools are relatively cheap and easy-to-obtain, tablet weaving is
popular with hobbyist weavers.

Customer Testimonials and Reviews:
Hi, I just want to tell you I received the CD today! I absolutely love your elegant packaging! I think I will get another CD to give as a gift for my best friend who is crazy about crochet! Sue H.
Dear folks at Patterns-on-CD, thank you for shipping the cd out so quickly. I am new at crocheting and I am finding the instructions very clear and easy to follow! Your CD is so easy to use. I can print out just the pages I am working on and scribble my notes on the print-out without worry. My dog chewed part of the pattern sheet I was working on, but no worries, I just print out another sheet! I am keeping the print outs in a 3 ring binder and even printed the lace images I like for the binder cover. Thank you for making this rare antique book available on CD ROM!
