more saori woven sandal straps

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

makes lacing my Sseko sandals  really easy





my feet are all set for hot weather now.

  1. These are fabulous! Where did you find the soles? Or did you cut them yourself?

  3. 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?
