A hand weaving device comprising a frame having a peripheral strip provided with a row of notches each receiving a H-shaped hook formed of two parallel bars connected by a stem, with the stem received in the notch and with the bar ends below the stem straddling the strip. Warp yarn is stretched between yarn holding means formed on the H-shaped hooks and warp yarn holding means opposite each hook across the frame. Weft yarn is woven without the need for shuttles or needles of any kind by alternately passing weft yarn under a hook to get the yarn between a warp yarn and the frame, and over a hook. The frame may be rectangular, with a row of hooks at one edge of the rectangular frame and a row of warp yarn holding pins at the opposite edge of the rectangle, or it may be round, with a row of hooks arranged around the periphery thereof and with warp yarn sretched from hook to diametrically opposite hook.
An improved weaving system, method of weaving and apparatus therefor for facilitating individually manipulable single fiber fabrication of woven fabrics.
