I accept orders for a limited number of custom fingerwoven pieces.The style, patter, size, and materials of the fingerweaving must be agreed upon before any work begins.

If I supply the yarn, the yarn will be commercial yarn. If you desire to have yarn that is hand spun and natural dies I would request that you supply the yarn.

*********************************************
The price of each item is based on the style of weaving, the number of square inches of weaving, the size of the yarn used, and the average number of changes in the pattern for each inch of width.

*********************************************
Style of weaving --- Warpface, openface, or interlinked

Square inches of weaving -- Length of woven area times the width of the woven area,

Size of yarn ----- Number of wrap of yarn per inch

Change in pattern --- Change in color, line of beads, line of twining, etc.

Type of fringe --- Twisted, 3 strand braid, 4 strand braid, strips of base weave, ect.

*********************************************
To Illustrate the pricing procedure, the price for Sash 053 will be used as an example.

*********************************************
Sash (053)
Pattern ---- Open face, solid with diamond bead pattern and twined zig-zag pattern on border
Total Length -------- 68 inches
Width ----------------- 3 3/4 inches
Length of weaving --- 32 inches
Fringe ---- braided
Material ---- wool, 2ply, 14 wraps/inch

*********************************************
The [price per square inch] of weaving will be needed to make the final price caculation.

*********************************************
The first thing that is needed is the average number of changes in the pattern for each inch of width.
In the example shown above there are a total of 8 changes: 2 rowes of twining, 2 color changes,and 4 lines of beads. To find the average number of changes in the pattern for each inch of width, divide the number of changes (8) by the width of the sash (3.75 inches)

8 / 3.75 inches = 2.133 (average number of changes)

The base price per square inch is $0.10 times the number of wraps per inch.

14 wraps/inch X $0.10 = $1.40 (base price)

The total price per square inch is is the base price per square inch plus $0.10 times the average number of changes per inch of width.

$1.40 (base price) + $0.10 X 2.1 (average number of changes) =

$1.40 + $0.21= $1.61/square inch

*********************************************

The final price calculation is the price per square inch times the length of weaving times the width of the sash.

$1.61 /square inch X 32 inches (length) X 3.75 (width) = $193.20
