They were nice and thin. This weekend I finally started weaving with them. I did not want to cut them up, but realized soon that I needed to slice them horizontal to get a long piece of plastic .
My idea was to weave a plastic outdoor rug, 30 x 60 inches.

ReplyDeleteI've so enjoyed wending my way through your blog! There are so many interesting projects.
ReplyDeleteCan you tell me what sett you use on the plastic rug projects - and also for the stick weaving projects. Thanks!
sorry, just read your question.
DeleteI can't remember what set I used. It varies, sometimes 10 , sometimes 8 ends per inch with plastic weavings
Stick weavings the same, depends on the thickness of the warp and sticks. You just have to play with it and it will come to you.
