Kute-uchi Methods of Making Three or Four Braids at One Shot
Introduced in this class are three loop braiding procedures: one for making "four braids at one shot" and another for making "three braids at one shot.モ The former simultaneously produces four 2-ridge flat braids and the latter two 2-ridge flat braids and one 4-ridge tubular braid.
Masako Kinoshita has created these procedures from the procedures reproduced from メNotes on Braiding,モ taught in the Next-Level Course (see L14).
Each participant receives a text-sample notebook on to which the sample swatches made in the class may be affixed.
クテ打の4段階手順では3本又は4本の組紐を同時に組む事も出来ます。
4段階手順で毛糸を用いて、4本の2畝平組紐を同時に組む組み方と、2本の2畝平組紐と角組1本又は4畝平紐1本、合計3本の紐を同時に組む組み方を習得します。更にクテ打の原理を概説します。
この組み方は、江戸後期の文書「組しゅん備考」から復元された手順のレパートリーには入っていませんが、この組技法の原理から案出できるもので、中世期の組紐にもこの手順に基づいた創案が見られます。
配布したテキスト・サンプル帳に作ったサンプルを貼付します。
