This is some of what I do at night when sitting around in my truck. It is 100% wool 4" X 14' and hand woven on an inkle loom.

TrkDriver99, Very nice work indeed ! I bought an INKL loom several years ago after seeing a card weaving seminar at Dixons but have not attempted to use it yet. What kind of loom did you use to do these straps ?

I used an inkle of my own manufacture. I pulled one up on the net and kind of just patterned it after a couple I saw.
