Ok, I’ve ordered 2lbs of unlaced Danish Papercord to start. 🫣🫣🫣 Right now I’m more anxious than excited, but we will see as I get into it. I did just notice, though, that the corners use a different material. It almost looks flatter and wider. 🤔Not sure what that is, exactly. Or if I can use the same material for the seat there instead…

Does anyone here do #SeatWeaving? I've got 6 old Ikea chairs like these, and the Danish paper cord on them is starting to fray. I LOVE them and they are discontinued. Trying to figure out if it's folly for a beginner to attempt to cut off and reweave. The curve looks daunting and I'm not sure which way to start warping (front to back versus left to right).

Anyone here done anything like this and have words of wisdom? #AskFedi #Weaving #Furniture #FurnitureRestoration #Restoration

My hands and my back are sore but overall I’m very pleased with my first attempt at the New England porch weave style of seat weaving! The hank of reed was basically exactly the amount I needed, as you can see from my tiny pile of leftover scraps. The back I left intact because it’s still in pretty good condition; also the back might be my grandmother’s work and I like that we’ve both left our mark on it. #seatweaving
