Notes

I bought way too much vintage knitting worsted on eBay. This, and the Very Woolly Blanket, are to weave down my enormous vintage stash.

I washed it in the wool cycle of our front-loader, warm wash/cold rinse, with two caps full of Eucalan, a huge dollop of unscented hair conditioner, and four color-catcher sheets. Mmmmm it came out plush and cuddly :)

10-dent reed, sleyed entire width minus one dent either side; Toika metal temple used throughout project;

20 epi doubleweave = 10 epi single layer

Floating selveges top & bottom (left side), highlighted with contrasting colors of perle cotton

Right selvege (top & bottom layers) reinforced with two heavily weighted strands of perle cotton
