Finally, I have freed up 3 of my 22" looms...I promised myself I wouldn't start anything really new until I got all the scarves and cuffs OFF!!! Usually I finish one scarf and go happily on to another loom to weave a different scarf instead of disciplining myself to stick to one loom. So today, to reward myself because of my amazing finishing ability, I have started a new type of scarf--this one will be about 10" wide and about 73" long (after washing, who knows!) and will close with buttons on one hemmed end and crocheted edged buttonholes on the other end. I've been dreaming about this one...you will be able to wrap it around and around your neck and button it closed.
I started winding the warp to start but it soon became too dark in the living room/loom room so I had to stop but I have a picture of the beginning! I tried to make it very subdued in color--sort of cloud-like and gossamer-like. hahahahaha...ok THAT didn't work. I even had names in mind like "lichen" or "tundra" or "windswept"... Now the name seems to be "riot" or "rainbow"... I tried, I really, really tried..
So here it is...the first 3 inches of the width and 4 scarves long...more to come tomorrow!
