Macrogauze, Peter Collingwood

“In the macrogauze technique, I use one-inch wide rigid heddles, which have 18 dents. Each of these carries its own small 18 end mini- warp. This is made on a vertical warping mill and then wound directly onto a bobbin. The latter has a weight attached. There are many of these rigid heddles plus warp plus bobbins, set side by side in a special loom. This has a batten that goes up and down (to give the two plain weave sheds) and a top that hinges up.
Because each is a separate little weaving system, I can easily move the heddles about, crossing mini-warp over mini-warp, turning the heddles upside down, and playing other seemingly impossible tricks.”
