New Happy Place
Weaving is becoming my relaxed happy place. I wish looms were portable. I need to restore my knitting mojo.
Learning to Weave
Here’s the latest few repeats of the project I posted last week. Floating selvedges and improved beating and throwing has fixed the edges. I’m slowly getting the movement patterns fixed and beginning to pick up speed. The last white repeat is essentially square, with an even length on the warp and weft threads. Thanks to
Progress
Trying to figure out how to manage the selvedges. I suspect in the end this may involve a rolled hem. Temple weights didn’t work terribly well. These floating selvedges are helping, but still working on getting proper tension, avoiding edge loops and draw-in. Starting to stabilize.
