Again, even though I wasn’t blogging for a week, I sure was weaving. I wanted to have plenty of fall options for my show last weekend, so Tammy<\/a> worked her magic quickly and got me some beautiful Egyptian cotton and bamboo-cotton blend yarn.<\/p>\n

With the Egyptian cotton, I threaded the 4 harness counterbalance loom in an Ms & Ws pattern<\/a>.
\n\"handwoven<\/a> I treadled the bottom scarf in Ms & Ws, and the top scarf in a simple point twill pattern — easier to keep track of what I’m doing with my feet. \ud83d\ude42 I used a solid rust yarn for the weft on both of those. For the middle scarf, I just used a tabby (plain) weave, and the same hand painted weft as warp to create a somewhat regular plaid. You can clearly see in the picture that these scarves need some pressing – took the photo before I did that. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

Then I warped the loom for four scarves from the hand painted bamboo-cotton yarn in Moccasin.<\/p>\n

\"handwoven<\/a>At the left and top are two scarves woven with a solid chocolate brown weft in a twill weave. \u00c2\u00a0In the middle is a tabby weave using the same variegated weft. \u00c2\u00a0On the right I used a coral bamboo treadled in a diamond twill. \u00c2\u00a0I planned to turn one of the chocolate weft pieces into an infinity scarf, but I haven’t had time to do that yet.<\/p>\n

I’m still weaving away, and will do my best to get more of my work up soon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
