Ply-splitting using SCOT (single course oblique twining) is fun-and beautiful too-but learning POT (plain oblique twining) opens the door to even more design and structure possibilities. It lets you make a more open and flexible fabric or conversely, multiple layers (as in double weave)—not only allowing exciting motifs and textures but also creating a dense/thick fabric ideal for mats. Combining POT with SCOT lets you shape objects—especially lovely are 3-dimensional pieces. You need not be an expert ply-splitter to take this course but it’s suggested you have some previous splitting experience. You will consult with the instructor prior to class to determine the specific cords your unique piece will require. The cords may be ordered from the instructor or ordered on line. Splitters with experience and the required equipment may make their own cords. The only equipment you need is a fid.
