This is what happens when you don't have much time, but you want to get something on the loom.
Apparently when I read that you could thread log cabin DLDLDLDLDLDL I didn't realize that they were talking about a ONE BLOCK log cabin draft. So this is what I'm left with. Here I thought I was saving a little time! Hey, I'm so happy I have a warp on and can throw a shuttle that I don't care. I found some slubbed cotton that I'll use for a couple of the towels and I like the effect with just the moss green weft below. It has an almost rep look.
Sara talked about why we do what we do. I can't explain it as well as Sara did, but all I know is that I haven't woven since I took the painted warp baby blanket off the loom back in January and when I sat down tonight and finally started weaving it felt like I was where I belong!
I just found your blog today and I'm a weaver too. I look forward to reading all about your weaving adventures !
ReplyDeleteI like it! Feels like plain weave, which is always my favorite, although it probably puts you to sleep :)
ReplyDeleteOh how funny! I like the fabric too: weave away. You could do a series: one block, two blocks, three blocks, hey!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. And not being a weaver I have no idea what you said but love the pretty pictures. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI told you too much education could harm your brain.
ReplyDeleteI love it too. Color and weave plain weave is always fascinating. And the most important thing is that you are happily weaving!
ReplyDeleteI think it's pretty too. You will have the most beautiful towels around!
ReplyDeleteThe fabric looks good to me :-)...I know exactly what you mean when it comes to weaving...I sat down at the loom yesterday and spent a fair bit of time weaving off two towels and it really felt good! I don't why I've stayed away from it so long...Well, actually, I do know why, it's called spinning, knitting, sewing, two kids, a large house, and a husband :-)
