This 8 feet of diamond pattern tablet weaving was turned into a leash…but is way too heavy for the little 6 pound beauty that I had in mind! 

My fascination with this kind of weaving grows with each new pattern that I try.  Michael Cook of the Dallas area and the website Wormspit.com  was my initial inspiration several years ago when he appeared on the HGTV show That’s Clever.  (I seem to have lost the link to the video clip.)

Michael has a wonderful article in this edition of the magazine Spin Off.  It doesn’t talk about card weaving but about his other hobby…. raising silk worms!  If you get a chance… grab a copy.
