January 2026: Cally Booker, “8-Shaft Double Huck Lace”

illinoisprairieweavers

Two layers of huck lace: what can they do? What are they good for?

One of the happy surprises of this structure is just how appealing a double huck fabric is. From elegant scarves with beautiful drape, to towels and blankets with an irresistible ‘bounce’, it is lovely to wear and to handle. And just as in regular double weave, the two layers can be exchanged to create a variety of patterns and textures.

In this program, Cally introduced double huck and discussed her experimentation with this flexible and attractive structure, with a lot of great images and detail.
