fruits of last week


beamed, threaded and reeded.only 2 crossed threads.i was trying peggy osterkamp's method, but as my table loom differs i needed to hack it a bit. ended up with a hybid,but it works for my situation.also i was able to thread from the front and with these thick yarns it was a breeze.
the weaving will be another story.

look at all those lifts.by hand!
(o・ω・o)
this is a turned taquete hybrid. i don't care about the nomenclature as long as it's visually interesting and the cloth is a sound construction. note the operative word in the post is hybrid.
<( ̄︶ ̄)> haha the weaving police is coming to get me.

the required weft is almost 4x finer than the warp meaning more picks meaning slower weaving.i envision weaving all through the summer.but some years ago i wove yardage which was never ending. mind you i am talking about a table loom  and hand lifts. 
in the meantime rain permitting i need to run an ai vat and dye the silk weft for the warp that has been sitting demurely on the other loom.
