Pasamo... with passion
Today I'm showing you woven strips made from coarse wool tapestry yarn.
I made 2 belts with solar symbols to order.
The remaining warp was used to create a strip with a simple weave, 1.9 m long and 3.5 cm wide.
60.9 m of selvedge

Last year I decided to put a bit more threads on the very, design a more complicated pattern, weave a piece and leave such a half-finished selvedge to show the technique of weaving. My presentation lasted even 2 months, but I couldn't stop weaving and had to rework the entire warp. In September I made myself a second warp to show weaving techniques during…
I'm almost afraid to use this word, because uncle Google will start referring Pokemon hunters or collectors to my blog. Fortunately, I don't have a phobia about it - I remember that there was some cartoon with funny creatures, but the wave didn't take me. Actually, neither of the two waves: delight and mocking criticism. I won't describe the genesis of the selvedge,…
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…
After a break related to a trip to Beijing 😉 and smaller matters, I finished weaving on a wound warp. Today I took poor photos, but I and the camera are the best we can do – correcting the colors in Photoshop didn’t help either. Only the pattern is correct 🙂 Each of the selves is a bit over 4 cm wide. The lengths are as follows: 2.25 m, 1.6…
Again, I'm quite behind on writing. That's because, for an unemployed person, I've had a lot of work lately ;P I present the selvedges that I made especially for the Wielewit team. Patterns and colors reserved 😀 The selvedge on the left is 2.2 cm wide and 6.5 m long - it was originally 12.8 m, but it was cut off. At the back lies a selvedge that is 2.5 cm wide...
As I wrote, that's what I did. The red (i.e. cherry) selvedge with a gold (i.e. yellow) pattern is ready. It's supposedly made of a more plastic yarn (75% wool from acrylic sheep), but it turned out to be more atmospheric - it's a bit rough to the touch... or maybe fuzzy. The previous, woolen 50% was woven as if from plastic bags ;P It turned out that the maximum possibilities of the current...

I really like the second one. I like the black and red combination, and the pattern is great.
Great post. I'll definitely be here more often.
