Description

From start to finish. You will learn the Art of Horsehair hitching.  You will learn first how to twist horsehair into strands. A strand is called a pull.  A pull consists of eight individual pieces of horsehair.  Since horsehair. thinner at one end, thicker at the other you have to flip them so that when you twist the strand (pull) it will be even.  You will then take these pulls and tie them onto two strings around a wooden dowel, that are attached to a hitching jig.  A hitching jig is the main tool to hitching.   I will show you how to make the jig.  You will then proceed to use open and closed knots.  Turning the wooden dowel as you hitch each pull.  after hitching a inch or two.  You will start to hitch in your design.  At first this will consist of making a diamond pattern.  I will teach more complex designs at the course advances.  You will learn how to make belts, hat bands, inlay for leather.  Part of hitching horsehair involves using leather. Like belt ends for belts, inlay of wallets purses.  You can also make horse bridles, halters.  If you want you can also make the reins for the bridles.
