I needed to weave a second pair of straps for my Sseko sandals, narrower , and I got to use my aglet crimper.
I wove two simultaneously on my saori loom . finished width 1/2' but you could weave these on a ridged heddle loom , they are 85" long.
the multi color cotton 8/2, is my hand dyed warp I dyed.
EMPTY AGLET
aglet crimp pliers
cool
makes lacing my Sseko sandals really easy
my feet are all set for hot weather now.
Love these Nikolena!
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous! Where did you find the soles? Or did you cut them yourself?

there are two names for places to buy the soles that will work for hand woven straps

I love these as much as your Mohop laces, excellent job, and thanks for sharing your notes. Maybe I need to drag my RH out, re-warp it and get to weaving. Any comments on the amount of time these took?
ReplyDeleteWhere can I find that Aglet crimp plier? I've been looking for it but I can't find it. Pleas help. Thank you!
