A long time ago a present was given for my birthday. It was a colour design to weave my horoscope shawl.
The design was made bij Bonnie Tarses.
Being optimistic I intended to dye the yarn that was needed. However time went by and I thought; if you want to weave it just dive into your stash, otherwise it will take another 5 years.
Mercerized cotton.
Winding the warp was a challenge. The thread colours changed frequently.
However the result is beautiful!
Bonnie’s advice was to weave tabby, but no colour advice for the weft was given.
I decided, after several try outs, to use the warp colours!
400 threads became 100 fringes.
A glass bead was added and 4 fringes were braided and the result was 25 fringes!
That is a gorgeous shawl Nelly and beautifully woven.
