Here's the beginning of the first scarf on the painted warp I tried out sample wefts on (previous post). I love this scarf! This may end up in my personal closet. It's finished - second scarf will be woven using the rust weft. Not sure when I'll get back to it since tomorrow is a National Spinning & Weaving Week celebration at Llamas & Llambs in Jacksonville. I'll be there spinning all day. Unfortunately the weather is looking iffy for this outdoor celebration - a bit too cool and possible showers. Thinking I'll take my drop spindle instead of my wheel - less to worry about getting wet while walking from the car to the shop.

OHMYGOD! THat is beautiful. Keeping it you say...I don't know Cindie, if you were it anywhere near me I might be tempted to sneak out with it. :-)
ReplyDeletegorgeous! I love it.
ReplyDeleteThe red weft was a lovely choice. I know how difficult getting the right weft can be with painted warps. You don't want to lose any of the drama and some wefts really hide rather than enhance. It's comforting to know that I'm not alone, that others have weft dilemmas too!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I love painted warps. They are so much fun to weave!
ReplyDeleteThese were even more beautiful in person. I am glad I got a chance to meet you at the Saturday guild meeting and see (and feel) these up close!
ReplyDeleteThanks Renee. It was nice to meet you too - I hope you're able to come to the meeting occasionally.
