Hanging it
Hang the tall format on a narrow wall, in a hallway, or next to a doorway or staircase. It comes with no sleeve or rod pocket. Sew one half of a strip of hook-and-loop tape along the top and fix the other to a wooden batten. A clip rail or a tailor-made rod casing are the alternatives.
The tree of life, by hand
No two weavers draw a tree of life the same way. This one, with its needle-like leaves and five large birds, is woven freehand in wool.
