Weaving A Plain Weave Rug
Last winter I spent hours in my basement dyeing rug wool.
Now I get to play/weave with the yarn that I dyed.
I’m weaving this on my vintage Glimåkra countermarch loom.
My husband, Marshall, created two long treadles
for me so that I can stand while weaving.
They work quite well.
I’m using plain weave with alternating, random stripes
to weave this rug.
I’m choosing colors to coordinate with an improv quilt that I made.
Weave on,
Judy
love all the colors in the rug and in the quilt
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cindie! I had a lot of fun blending colors as I was dyeing the yarn.
DeleteThat's going to be a beautiful rug - as is the quilt! xx
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lin! It’s really fun to weave.
