A Leather Striped Lounge Chair
Scott has designed and made a few of these chairs, patterned after Mid- Century lounge chairs. While he has made versions with Danish cord seats, the seat on this one is made with leather strips, cut with a sharp knife and an aluminum straightedge. He says the strips, approximately 1 ⁄ 4 in. thick by 2 in. wide, are perfect for weaving; they are strong and attractive and they stay flat. And he says the leather work takes about one-third the time of Danish cord.
