#plainweave

2025-05-24
I finally began weaving this plain weave cloth. It is part entry into weaving again and learning and maybe incorporating it into another piece of experimental art. We shall see. So far so good in spite of the lousy tension and several other mistakes in the prep. Learning from mistakes is what this is all about. The proof will be in the final washing and setting the weave.

The warp is wound onto the back beam and tied onto the front. I'm trying out a technique I learned from a video by Tammy Bast the Rogue Weaver where she wraps adjacent end threads around each other between bundles of threads when tying on (see picture 2 for a detail). Tammy is the Rogue Weaver.

Finished this wrap a while ago but haven't been in a posting mood 'til now. This is 36 ends per inch in wool. The final length was a bit shy of two yards. I gave it to a friend who's helped me though some really difficult times recently, and it felt so good to give her a physical manifestation of my time, care, and attention.

I'm excited about weaving more fine fabric like this. Right now I'm setting up something thicker but still pretty fine, an Angora nylon blend at 24 epi.
