Original sample interpretation; not a historical museum object.

Overview

Tablet weaving controls warp threads using pierced cards. The Braid Society’s example uses four threads through each square tablet. Quarter turns open a space for the weft; beating compacts the band.

Band width depends on card number and thread thickness. Turns accumulate twist behind the cards, managed here by reversing direction. This beginner exercise does not establish one historical place or date of origin.
