Thanksgiving Weaving



This year I had the fortune to stay by myself and weave for several days. It is nice to think thru a project and then execute it all in one setting.
This did not mean that there weren't many mistakes, I can't tell how often I open up colors because they didn't look right. So here is the outcome.
Still have to do something to all the plastic ends and sew it in, so that it can hang.
This piece is 3 ft x 6 ft, quite big. Cotton warp and mostly Wall Street Joutnals are the warp.

next bamboo blinds with habu warp




Very nice to weave with. Love the way the fiber reacts with each other.
The warp is mostly  Habu kakishibu cotton viscose with a bit of printed cotton gima.
Lovely fiber. Highly recommend it.
