May was “green month”. I have been enjoying the weaving - not quite finished yet. I’ll get back to it soon and also draw the colour for June. A wee bit behind, but it’s only my own schedule 🙂
Lozenges, supplemental warp, log cabin, mountains, and more.

And there was weaving! Fantastic weaving. Clasped weft, lozenges, art yarn, decorative hem stitching, shadow weaving, figuring out if houndstooth could be incorporated using supplemental white warps on a back warp and more. Also figuring out variations for sleeves, measuring, looking at boat necked top ideas and lots of fun! A rice ball lunch on Friday from was a nice Japanese way to finish off the retreat.
Always great to have and at the studio!

And another piece that I finished at Wyldflower. This one a jacket with a denim collar and cuffs. It’s been fun to add fabric to accent the weaving.

Another top that I completed at Wyldflower. This is the boat neck top - but without a boat neck. I sewed up the top seam (leaving openings at the ends for the arms and then used a modified crew neck template from the Intermediate book.
Lots going on in the weaving - lozenges, a ruffle (mini-frill) and more. I used a pre-wound warp for this one.

With the end of my yellow warp, I made a summer top. As it was a bit short, I added a piece of denim to the back - which shows off the fringe. I then made a bias strip of denim for neck binding (thanks for teaching me). I made the neckline based on a template in the Intermediate book, but modified it so that this top can be worn with either as the front.
