Nobody held me back so I reverse-engineered the process of deflected double-weave for my first loom weaving.
For non-weavers: this is two scarves! It's a rainbow scarf and a grey scarf that were woven simultaneously. They pass through holes in each other in such a way that they can never be separated, but no yarn from one scarf intersects with yarn from the other!
I was so inspired by @batbetbitbotbut's very cool scarf that I pounced on the first 4-shaft loom that I could get my hands on! As I said in the tags of that post, I was going to need a heck of a prayer circle to restrain my crafter's hubris, and no such circle happened so here we are!
I couldn't find any non-paywalled explanations of the foundational concepts of deflected double-weave, nor did I see any patterns that i liked at a quick glance. Thankfully, I had a 30 second long vaguely gestured explanation from @absolute-messs of how it was done*, and the self-confidence of a guy who's fiddled around with string and trash enough to independently re-invent warp-weighted looms and rigid heddles with no prior knowledge of either.
The first pattern I drafted turned out to have major flaws with tension, so I un-wove it and figured out something else I could make without re-threading the whole thing. ~15 hours of pulling apart fuzzy halos with every row of the rainbow yarn and letting-the-yarn-tell-me-where-it-needed-tension later and it was done!!! It's the coziest thing I own. Feels weird to admit this but I had no idea scarves could actually count as a layer beyond keeping the wind off your face??? It's so fucking warm I love wool. (plsss ignore how messy the fringe is in the first pic, i'd been wearing it daily for several weeks and i wanted to see if it would felt enough to stay together without knots)(it didn't)
*or so I thought! turns out it was a rough gist of how regular-ass non-deflected doublecloth is made and my brain auto-completed the rest 😅
Three fine rebozos at a glance: Tenancingo de Degollado and Oaxaca
Susie’s traveled with Oaxaca Cultural Navigator to Tenancingo de Degollado to explore the ikat weaving and rebozomaking culture of Mexico. She has since returned with us to other parts of Mexico, including Chiapas and the Oaxaca Coast. Meanwhile, on that trip she picked up a few beautiful pieces she hasn’t yet worn and after…

I wove two red panels decorated with simple warp floats - red on red for simplicity next to the busy black and white pattern - and am now joining the three panels together with weft twining across the top. backstrapweaving.wordpress.com/
