I enjoyed weaving those rainbow dishtowels a lot! So yesterday I wound another rainbow warp. I'll weave this on my Baby Wolf, in a huck lace, like the last set of towels. Like that last warp, this is a randomized rainbow, designed as I selected threads to wind on the mill. I'm spending today threading the heddles and tying on the warp:
I wound the warp in 5 bouts, because it's a 13 yard warp (for 12 towels) and I couldn't fit more than 110 threads at a time on my warping mill.
Editing to add the draft info: It's from the July/July 2000 issue of Weaver's Craft, #3 - I used the draft from the "Carribean Plaid Huck Towels", but converted it to use 10/2 cotton and a 19.75" weaving width. More details in
my Ravelry project page.
It's cool here today - temps in the upper 50's F. Such a lovely fresh breath of air - it finally feels like Fall!
ooo! Lovely! Please share your pattern!
ReplyDeleteSure! It's from the July/July 2000 issue of Weaver's Craft, #3 - I used the draft from the "Carribean Plaid Huck Towels", but converted it to use 10/2 cotton and a 19.75" weaving width. It's a simple huck lace. You can see the details in my Ravelry project here: http://www.ravelry.com/projects/DebbieB/handwoven-huck-rainbow-towels-again
