How to make a spherical doodle weaving:

1. Established up the warp (these are the vertical threads). I did this by slicing a entire bunch of threads and then taping them to the side of the hoop. I did not evaluate, just eye-balled. I also loosely taped the hanging threads up to the side which is why it looks like there is so significantly tape.

3. I use a “shoelace” strategy when weaving whereby I wrap the conclude of the yarn with a piece of tape so that it is simpler to weave with.

The fork definitely will help to make it all limited.
