As life returns to “normal” this month - let us know what you are weaving as we start to spend more time inside.
Warping 15 inch double weave with 8/2 cotton. Wish me luck

Just got these summer and winter towels off the loom. I can't say I got away without a couple of mistakes. It takes a lot of concentration on the treadling (for me, anyway!). I think I will have a break from S & W. The blue and cayenne towel is a halvdrall. Like that weave.!
Taking JST Season 6 Episode 2 (8 Shaft Twill Blocks and Tie-Up Quadrants), specifically towel #5 and using silk as the weft for a shawl.. This one has been rolling around in my head since I wove the kit. I actually did a sample when weaving the kit with some spare silk. I found I really liked the drape of 32 PPI, even though that’s about twice the sett listed on Jane’s sett chart. I’m using Ariel’s Voice and Limelight. Gonna get really good at fringe twisting on this one!!
Good luck Karen...you've got this!!
Beth, your towels are beautiful !!
First project on my new David 3 loom and first Jane project. Season 2 asymmetry. Upscaled to 24' wide and 28" + hems long teatowels (Thank you Sandra for reminding me to not only upscale the background). Used Venne Cottolin because that is what I've got available. Struggled to get even squares because not all stripes where equal on my loom having to slay 2-2-2-1- on a 10 reed. Turned out ok after washing. I liked the last one best and was sorry my warp wasn't longer to keep going.

Thank you, Cheryl.
Nice job, Karin!
On my Gilmore. I call Magenta Madness. Turned twill, my draft, based on learning from Jane. Sort of a gamp. I re-threaded the harnesses and reed. I like it better now.

Karin, lovely towels and congrats on the new looms!
Kit, your weaving is wonderful (as always).
I made changes to this warp. It's complicated and I needed to simplify and am now enjoying weaving this "gamp". I like it better now that I've removed the selvedge white threads. The structure is turned twill on 8. And since I put so many stripes in the warp, this towel is using a mauve fonce weft, changing threading every 4 picks.
