An article from Master Weaver on weaving free-design patterns in chenille rugs, continuing two earlier articles on chenille. It explains how interlocking two colours in the chenille weft (the locked-weft method) allows any design to be woven if it is divided into sections with no more than two colours in any vertical line. It works through a black diamond on white and a three-colour rug, with notes on warp width, pile length, shuttle and bobbin setup, weaving tables, the second weaving, and time per square yard.
