Some friends came over to work in the wood workshop and in the studio today. I kept her company while she cut out a dress and I got some more weaving done. As I said earlier, I’ll be using the same repeat as is in the warp. Today I finished the first purple weft stripe. I was pretty pleased with it under tension, but when I released the tension I noticed I’ve got some weft loops that appeared. I’m guessing this is a function of not having a straight fell line. Anyone who has experience weaving linen, is welcome to give me advice on this matter!
I will either be making a square 30″ x 30″ blanket or a rectangular 30″ x 60″ blanket. I can’t remember how much warp I put on the loom, as it’s been over a year since I started this one. I will be finished soon though!
