Intertwined

Intertwined's tapestry beater is
a small, handheld tool for pressing the weft into place.   It is designed to
fit neatly in hand, with rounded corners for comfort.   The teeth are set at 9
1/3 to the inch.   The large hole allows the beater to be hung on a ribbon or
string and worn around the neck.   This keeps the tool from being dropped or
lost.   Choose either brass or aluminum.   Brass is heavier and has a solid
feeling.   Aluminum is less than 1/2 of the weight of brass, however the
material is just as thick and is strong enough to pack the weft into place. |

The weaving needle is six inches long
with a large eye and a blunt tip.   It can be used threaded, to weave in long
runs of weft or used as a tool to "flip" weft in place when a short run
(less that 4 inches) of weft is to be woven in. |
