Ripples on Copper Dowel
This wall hanging is an experiment with Inlay, a weaving technique. I wove this by hand on a floor loom with white cotton and mystery pink yarn using an overshot pattern as the base. It has been tied onto a piece of copper to give it a modern design. I intended for the ripples of this pattern to create a calming feeling. It makes for a beautiful alternative to a 2D print to display in your home.

Love the texture and energy it brings to my space!
“I recently purchased a large weaving from Ibu Textiles and it has been a lovely addition to my space. I love that it's made from recycled materials. The texture and energy it brings to my wall is just what I needed to add some depth and interest to my room. Highly recommend their pieces to anyone looking for high-quality and eco-friendly woven pieces for their home.”

How it’s made
Step 1: Warping and Threading
The first step in weaving is to measure and warp the loom, then thread the heddles and reed to create the desired pattern. This involves carefully measuring the length and width of the piece and wrapping the yarn around the warping board. The warp threads are then transferred to the loom and threaded through the reed and heddles.
Step 2: Setting up for Weaving
Once the warp threads are in place, the next step is to tie them to the back beam and wind them tightly to ensure proper tension. This step is crucial to ensuring that the weave is even and consistent throughout the piece. Once the loom is set up and tensioned, the weaver can begin to weave the piece.
Step 3: Weaving and Finishing
With the loom set up, it's time to start weaving! This involves threading a bobbin and using it to interlace the weft yarn over and under the warp threads to create the desired pattern. Once the weaving is complete, the piece is removed from the loom and hemmed to finish the edges.
