This amazing craftswoman made all her own clothing etc. The layering that can be acheived is wonderful. Notice the felt, embroydered hats to her left. She made beautiful items worn by many others in attendance. Here she is card or tablet weaving. This method was used as far back as the 14th - 16th centurys. An intricate initial warp set up requires precise lengths of yarn, arrangement of colors & stringing the materials according to a detailed pattern. The wooden cards have three to six holes that are each threaded and numbered. The cards are turned individually, sometimes toward, sometimes away from the weaver in preparation for the introduction of each waft thread. I found more info on this here: www.renaissancetailor.com/demos_cardweaving.htm
