MAY WEAVING



May's finished projects on the loom. I am trying to work my way though the pattern book and get also get comfortable warping and weaving. The close-up is of the 3/1 twill of scarf one and a more true depiction of the actual color which is a handspun Chameleon Colorworks roving in veridian dark and light. The middle scarf is one no one will probably ever wear as it was done using some of Ruth Schooley's color gamp that I took at a GLASG meeting. It's Harrisville Shetland and while the colors are lovely, it is scratchy. Too bad.

I am enjoying time at the loom and watching the patterns grow. The 3/1 has 34 picks to complete the pattern and it was difficult keeping track until started using an old knitter's trick and inserted a piece of sewing thread at the beginning of the sequence creating a lifeline.
