An open sister means that I can put more length on my loom than I have committed.  For the best use of my time, it&#8217;s most efficient to warp for between 7 and 10 meters of finished length.  <\/p>\n<p>At the moment I&#8217;m in an unheard of situation, having two open sisters!  I&#8217;ve put the info out to my wait list, and thought I&#8217;d post them here, too.  I&#8217;ve shown drafts from my weaving software, with the best I can do to match yarn colors.  Both drafts show a black weft and a white weft to give some idea how light and dark colors interact with the warp; the buyer can choose any color weft.  I&#8217;ve also shown my hearts weave; other weave patterns can be chosen.<\/p>\n<p>I use <a href=\"http:\/\/www.woolery.com\/store\/pc\/Cotton-8-2-1-2-lb-Cones-74-Colors-p6196.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Maurice Brassard cottons<\/a> for the warp, and though I most commonly use it for weft as well, I have successfully used tencel, silk, cottolin, and cotton\/hemp for weft.<\/p>\n<p>The warp colors in the first draft are periwinkle, bleu, bleu moyen, turquoise, vert pale, gris pale, and gris fonce. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Open-sister-RA-11-15.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Open-sister-RA-11-15.jpg\" alt=\"open sister RA-11-15\" width=\"550\" height=\"176\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6809\" srcset=\"https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Open-sister-RA-11-15.jpg 550w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Open-sister-RA-11-15-300x96.jpg 300w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Open-sister-RA-11-15-150x48.jpg 150w, https:\/\/secondwindjewelry.com\/jewelry-weaving-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Open-sister-RA-11-15-400x128.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The second draft uses the following warp colors: fuschia, rose fonce, rose pale, periwinkle, and mauve pale.  <\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in either open sister, email me at peg (at) handwovenscarves (dot) com for pricing and other info, or leave a comment on this post.
