RETURNING TO THE LOOMS LATE SUMMER 2025

 Inspired by weaver friend to not let empty looms sit. I'm back to my looms.

Here's my next set of towels in process. So long story: I had two skeins of Blazing Shuttles handdyed cotton in color Smoke and Rust that I wanted to have some black sections. So I overdyed a part of them last week. I'm happy how they turned out. I got a 6 yard warp out of them on Sunday and then tied on 432 threads to my Louet Spring loom yesterday along with the addition of some handdyed Eugene Textile cottolin multi color threads for some color pop variety. Started the first towel this morning. First towel weft color of black, considering maybe a gold for one, and then the the other 4--who knows....








 


I ended up weaving three with noir- black and 3 with rouge vin- wine.
