Brown Series

ByThe haberdashery


The material crisis has passed with the arrival of a full bundle of yarn. The colors will now be quite natural, and the selvedges will be difficult, because the wool is hard and rough. If so, I will make it more difficult and make the selvedges very patterned. I only wonder what my hands will look like after working through the whole bundle – maybe I will find a way to make the most effective peeling in the world.


Each selvedge is approximately 4.5 cm wide.
The first one is 1.8 m long and has a pattern of my own design.
The second one is 1.9 m long and the design is very historical – but unfortunately I can’t provide the source, because I recently installed the system and I don’t know which codex I copied it from…
The last selvedge is shorter, only 1.1 m long, and features a motif that is probably older than our civilization 🙂

And here's a view of the left side:

Brown series again

It's a waste of time, and there are so many ideas. Weaving from coarse yarn is laborious and a bit off-putting. The effect is quite interesting, so that's the only reason I didn't throw the wool in the farthest corner, so...

Eastern style selvedges

Today I won’t hide my pride in the woven selvedges 🙂 The impulse to get down to work came from Jadobra, who wanted a belt with S-straps. She sent me a few photos with the selvedges selected and said: copy them. Unfortunately, I don’t know the author of the originals – as soon as I find out who they are, I’ll definitely add them. Edit: I received information that…

The selvedge I’m presenting today is quite unique. I started it at the beginning of summer and I wasn’t in any hurry to finish it – I was testing a small inkle loom, which is very handy and a selvedge that has been started doesn’t bother anyone. I was also testing new yarns – new to me, because unfortunately the manufacturer has stopped production. The most important thing is that I finished it in…

For warming up

I hereby announce the opening of the workshop. I am fulfilling outstanding orders and preparing fresh assortment 🙂 After a long break, I am returning to weaving on the bardek. To warm up, I made a short selvedge – it is only 5.5 m 😉 Even though I am not used to it, it is quite dense.
