Woolworks Curriculum Guide Grades 3-8 Lesson 10: Tapestry

Lesson 10: Tapestry WeavingStudents learn the history of tapestry weaving and how to weave pictures. Paragraph from the Chapter "Most people think of a tapestry as a woven picture. Unlike cloth weaving, the weft yarns in tapestries completely cover the warp threads, creating a weft-faced piece. In addition, the design for a tapestry is often drawn on paper first. The drawing, or cartoon, is placed behind the warp and used as a guide during weaving."
