Maori flax weaving can only be learnt the old way, by sitting, by listening, by touching and by doing. Start with a full leaf and pull off the hard midrib. Split it into strips of an even width right across the leaf. Before weaving, you have to soften the strips by shell or the blunt edge of a butter knife. Scrape the flax in each direction, pulling to the end of the strip each way. Hold the shiny side of the leaf facing you with the stalk pointing downwards.
The second type of thread (or cord) used in loom beading is the weft. For our weft we're using the size D C-Lon beading thread. Prepare a length of thread and thread your needle. The length of weft thread you use depends on your comfort level and the method of finishing off you plan to use.se your fingers to bring the beads up between the warp threads, with one bead between each pair of warps. Gently press the entire group of beads, and the weft, up against the warps. Now pass the needle through each bead, on top of the warps.
