Simple Paper-Strip Weaving

Explore the idea in “Simple Paper-Strip Weaving” using a few large parts. Your version can look different from the example. Arrange or wrap wide, short fabric strips on a large backing with adult help.

Study the example for possibilities, then close or cover it. Your work should make different choices.

What to do

  1. Make a fiber version of “Simple Paper-Strip Weaving” with large parts.
  2. Arrange or wrap wide, short fabric strips on a large backing with adult help.
  3. Choose colors and arrange the largest sections first. Ask an adult to secure the starting end.
  4. Repeat your chosen wrapping, arranging, or over-under action. Stop and ask for help when a strip catches.
  5. Secure the ends with paper tape or school glue. Let them dry.
  6. Show one texture or pattern you chose. Return spare strips.
