Season 8 Episode 1 - M's & O's Goes on a 2nd Date
Can you believe it ....Season 8, Episode 1 is finally here. I just had to start the year with more M's & O's, heavily influenced by Huck, and a different Colour and Weave sequence on top. This time I used Log Cabin theory. I can't tell you how much fun I had with this, and I want to do more and more and more. I don't think I've obsessed over a weave structure like this in years, which is pretty cool after 46 years of sitting behind a loom.
I wish I had put on a longer warp because I was just getting started with the Lace treadlings around towel 6. I used the Huck Lace Tie-up for towel #6, and then I used the Huck Weft Float tie-up with Bronson Spot and Bronson Lace treadling sequence for towels #7 and #8. The possibilities are endless!
Things we will learn:
• How to overlay, overlay, overlay.
• We are using the draft from last episode.
• How to use the profile as a design tool to begin the overlay.
• How to bring graphics and colour ways from previous episodes to the table.
• How to explore Log Cabin on this structure.
• How to weave it in Huck Lace.
• How to weave it using the tie- up for Huck weft spots but treadle it like Bronson Spot and Bronson Lace
