I only got a skein for sampling, but already I can't take my eyes off it. It's clear that I need a LOT more.
I wove a piece of cotton fabric for a cushion.
I used some rainbow yarn for both warp and weft and a simple log cabin pattern.
I quite like the effect.
The amount of things to be done in this flat is still overwhelming but I calmed down a lot.
It's the effect of Autumn approaching...

Doni, lovely colour and weaving!
ReplyDeleteLog cabin is a perfect weave for variegated yarn, also using it for both warp and weft. I'd have been afraid it would look mucky. It does not.
ReplyDeleteI admire your weaving for its use of simple structures to big effect, and your perfect pitch when it comes to color
Thank you both!
ReplyDeleteSusan, I too was afraid the outcome would be confused, but this time I was lucky (just because I really wanted to use some cotton yarn I already had in my stash!)
oh my god, that color and weave are so beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI don't spin or weave, but you made me dream about all the beautiful things I would make from your indigo fabric. :D
