The Kromski Harp in Use

What can you do on a Kromski Harp, a rigid heddle loom? Here is a display of work done by students of Linda LaBelle of Brooklyn, NY. These weavings were completed by 10 beginning weavers and two intermediate weavers and were displayed at a show at Habu Textiles in New York City.

 


The following pieces were woven on the Kromski Harp Rigid Heddle Loom using Plain Weave combined with Leno, Brooks Bouquet, Discontinuous Weft, and/or Tapestry Techniques. Two of the students dyed their warp yarns with Kool-Aid and another dyed her scarf with Earthues Natural Dyes. A wide variety of fibers were used in both the warps and wefts!

Web page note: you will note a difference in color between the full pictures and any close-ups. This is due to lighting in the gallery and photographic issues.
