Netting Shuttles Netting Shuttles These flexible plastic shuttles are used by fishers to make and mend net. The small size are also my favorite shuttle for inlaying pattern weft yarns in the Moorman technique. The medium size hold fabric strips for pattern inlay. The large size are useful for holding ground weft for narrow weavings and also for cardweaving. If unsure, order some of each size to see which size is most useful to you. Directions for winding are included.
Large (8" x 7/8") / $1.75
Medium (7" x 3/4") / $1.50
Small (5" x 1/2") / $1.25

Shoestrings
Not just for your sneakers, shoestrings are a great tool to use on the loom. The video and book,Warping on a Shoestring, (link to video page) shows how to save time and acheive a perfectly tensioned warp using shoestrings. Flat and slippery are the key ingredients that make these shoestrings work for this warping method. Order the same number of shoestrings as the weaving width of your loom, plus additional for lashing.
Fiber: Polyester
