1. Sketch and warp

One of the first steps consists in sketching on cardboard the intended design on a one-to-one scale. This cardboard is then placed underneath the warp throughout the weaving process so as to faithfully reproduce the design. The needlework is characterized by a warp of thin threads, as many as 9 per square centimeter as opposed to a mere 6 for a mechanical loom, allowing for unmatched quality and finesse in rendition.
