The next part of the ‘optical weaving’ workshop, was ‘Shadow Weave’.
I am not the sampling type, but to my surprise I did enjoy the weaving.
Log cabin and Shadow weave was done on the same warp, with the same threading. Hurrah…
I have my own preferences of the different patterns in combination with the colours.
The photo’s are not very good, sorry. They look rather dull!
Years ago (2009) I spun mechanised flax. It became a holiday project. Exactly 10 years later I finished plying. Plying is not really necessary however I want to weave with it and I thought it too thin. That’s why!
Now it is linnen. Three skeins with a total weight of 470 grams
and the length is 2456 meter. It is not yet washed.
Once upon a time a workshop was given by Heather Adamson on the Online Guild.
It was in the year 2008.
I did like to participate. Always wanted to make a puppet like that.
I started optimistic, but couldn’t decide how to make it to my full content.
So I thought ‘let it simmer a while’ and that ‘while’ became alsmost 9 years!!!
When the Ufo (unfinished objects) workshop started last january, I thought it is now or never.
I took my time again, but I did it….
May I introduce…… Reppy Reptile.
