Interlock Join With Multiple Color Changes Video
Well, my wool order arrived and I got back to work on this weaving. Not that I didn’t have anything else to do in the mean time. However; it is rather large and sits in my living-room starring at me. I made a video demonstrating this process once before, however this one shows more color changes and is closer. There aren’t so many color changes that it gets confusing, at least that’s my hope. I edited it so you only see me weaving the portion that’s in the frame. What I’m not showing is how the sheds are made, and if anyone would like a visual on that, I can make a video once I’m a little higher up on the weaving.
Anyone who read the blog: Designing, Planning and Inspiration, will recognize where I am on this weaving in correlation to my sketch. It takes a bit of measuring, and it doesn’t come out exact as the sketch, but it gives me direction and keeps me on the right path.
I can’t wait until I have worked a little higher on this weaving. The only thing harder than getting on that floor to weave, is getting back up again. I’m not accustomed to working with colors with a light value. The grey and white together had me worried, but they sett off each other nicely. My next worry is the brown. I choose a brown that I have used quite a bit and like a lot. Now to see how it will sit next to these other colors.
This is my attempt to keep this post from being too “Windy”. Be sure to type in your email in the subscribe box on the right of this post. It will email you a representation of my posts with links. While I have no control over the formatting of the emails, it does at least link you in the right direction. There is also an RSS feed subscribe box if you use any of those services. Also visit my YouTube channel, Mystic Handworks. Don’t get left out of the fun!!!
A website devoted to learning, sharing and teaching a wide range of fiber arts. Inkle, Tablet and Navajo style weaving, Spinning, Knitting, Crochet, Sewing and Lace Making. Silver Work, Beading and Tool Making grace my bench as well.
Looking forward to watching the progress of this project, too. Don’t forget to e-mail out invites directly to your weaving & non-weaving friends directly to encourage them to join your blog and visit your website. The idea is to create a e-mail promotion every time you post something on your blog and or website.
I should do that. I just don’t want to annoy everyone with it. I guess that I just assume, “if they want to read it and subscribe, they will, and since they haven’t, they won’t.”
I do intend to post the progress of this project. It should be an interesting process to watch for those keeping track, like an unveiling.
