The komen is a wooden tool, measuring a little over 2 meters long and 5cm wide, it contains notches set on different heights that dictate the length of the fabrics to be woven. During this process, the weaver counts the spins the thread does, having to cut and bind them through knots with the different colors employed in the design. The preparation of a single thread before being placed in the loom can take up to an entire day. The length of the woven fabric in a Waist Loom is almost unlimited, however its width usually doesn’t surpass 60cms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe threads in the warp are mounted in between two horizontal wooden sticks, one of them is hooked to either a tree or a post, while the other is bound to the waist by using ropes and a belt, that is usually made from leather. The process of mounting the threads to the loom is a complicated one, which usually requires lots of experience and skill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the warp has been mounted, the artisan starts weaving the fabric’s weft using a thrower, which is a piece of wood shape as an arrow, used to roll thread around it before incorporating it to the weave. Using the wooden machete, the weft is compressed and adjusted after every turn of the thread, being aided from another two pieces in the loom: the “olibalte”, which rises the treads from the warp and the “pat akan”, which sets them downwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the canvas has been weaved, the artisan unties it from the loom’s rods, so she can apply the finishing touches. Untied threads are rolled and knotted to give a clean finish to the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eVideo of the Artisan\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cCsI0iLkL1M\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e","published_at":"2018-06-19T14:13:59-07:00","created_at":"2018-06-19T14:23:01-07:00","vendor":"PATRICIA HERNANDEZ CHAVEZ","type":"BACKSTRAP WEAVING","tags":["OAXACA","PILLOWS \u0026 BEDCOVERS"],"price":10900,"price_min":10900,"price_max":10900,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":8925932257343,"title":"Blue\/Beige","option1":"Blue\/Beige","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"BW-PHC-SQUARE-CUSH-01","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Decorative Square Cushion Sleeve 17x17 Inches, Oaxacan Backstrap Weaving -

The komen is a wooden tool, measuring a little over 2 meters long and 5cm wide, it contains notches set on different heights that dictate the length of the fabrics to be woven. During this process, the weaver counts the spins the thread does, having to cut and bind them through knots with the different colors employed in the design. The preparation of a single thread before being placed in the loom can take up to an entire day. The length of the woven fabric in a Waist Loom is almost unlimited, however its width usually doesn’t surpass 60cms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe threads in the warp are mounted in between two horizontal wooden sticks, one of them is hooked to either a tree or a post, while the other is bound to the waist by using ropes and a belt, that is usually made from leather. The process of mounting the threads to the loom is a complicated one, which usually requires lots of experience and skill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the warp has been mounted, the artisan starts weaving the fabric’s weft using a thrower, which is a piece of wood shape as an arrow, used to roll thread around it before incorporating it to the weave. Using the wooden machete, the weft is compressed and adjusted after every turn of the thread, being aided from another two pieces in the loom: the “olibalte”, which rises the treads from the warp and the “pat akan”, which sets them downwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the canvas has been weaved, the artisan unties it from the loom’s rods, so she can apply the finishing touches. Untied threads are rolled and knotted to give a clean finish to the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eVideo of the Artisan\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cCsI0iLkL1M\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e"}
