Sisal Seating

 
 
 
Just thought that you would like to see how the seats are weaved onto the chairs, this is known as the Irish weave. I have used Sisal 3 ply string, but you can use anything that is strong enough and about 3mm in diameter, the thinner it is the more that has to go on and then the longer it takes to do, you can use Hemp, Rush, Seagrass, Flax, Danish Cord.

This proved to be quite a challenge as I wanted to turn the front leg extentions to give it a more classic look, unfortunatly I was beginning to run out of suitable wood so struggled a bit. But I think that the end result was OK.
