all those nice slubs and pilling that would make such an attractive, wabi yardage...that rustic silk doupionni that would add charm to the final cloth....
they are a royal PITA! anxious to finish and get my hands on good ol' organzine.
it's frog thin; 5 strands twisted into 1 and it's still thinner than a dime. but it's strong and smooth and very twisted so no pilling.
hoping to finish weaving over the weekend and start doing the warp chains.
neki desu
whether or not they are a pita, the warp is gorgeous. really really.
ReplyDeleteI just got some dupioni yarn from Thailand. I tried to unwind part of a skein so I could weigh and calculate grist - those slubs are indeed a PITA - they grab onto everything! The cloth will be beautiful, though, so I hope it's worth the aggravation!
