eleven years ago this one was bought and read. as with most weaving books it needed a second more aware reading.and thus the weaves have also been revisited particularly finishing techniques.
crepe yarns are harsh and scratchy due to their twist.
the industry has means to soften them ,but the hand weaver has to opt for less pro solutions.
one of them is putting the woven fabrics in an acidic bath.
btw this red was obtained during my procion dyes period.
the bath softens them to a certain extent but they need more treatement. these will undergo the second treatment which is a hair conditioning bath.
we'll see.
on the tooth front after a week on antibiotics all's ok. now on to the dentist.
