Notes

Third place in the State Fair of Texas Weaving category!

Note to self… When you know that it takes you weeks (or months) to complete a piece, take a picture of the finishing of the first rows so you know how to finish it at the end!

Planned pooling warp.

One of my stripes did not work as intended. It has streaks of the wrong color in it. It’s still pretty though.

The DFW Fiber Fest was collecting scarves for vets this year, and the requirement was that the scarves be in military colors. Out of anything in my stash, this screamed “military” the loudest. So I’m going to try it!

Since then, the daughter of a friend joined the Army. I think I will send it to her instead.

The warp on this one ended up being tight at the edges and looser in between. I wasn’t sure how to tighten up the middle one I got started. So I rolled with it.

96” before soak and dry
90” after.
