I plied the shetland this weekend. It doesn't make a memorable picture, but it turned out so much softer than I was expecting. Too bad you can't feel it.

Color Gamp
It's about time to put on a new warp. I've been saying that I want to have the next project ready to go on the loom as soon as I cut off the last, but I just haven't got there yet. I do have several warps for wool blankets ready to go, but I think I'd like to try a color gamp. I bought 20 cones of 10/2 cotton from Lunatic Fringe at Creative Strands 2003 - it should have aged sufficiently by now! I'm thinking twill.

ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing the finished product.
ReplyDeleteOhhh, a color gamp! Looking forward to your progress on that one, I find those so utterly interesting! Could just look at that all day. Maybe I should make a table cloth like that ;) so I can study while I eat.
