Pastures grazing

ByThe haberdashery

Last year I decided to put a bit more threads on the very, design a more complicated pattern, weave a piece and leave a selvedge like that to show the technique of pulling out. 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 present weaving techniques during the Biskupin Festival. Unfortunately, this time it went worse, because the selvedge was finished on Monday, so it lasted 3 days 😉 Well, I expected it to be more difficult to weave, but it's nice to be wrong.

Weaving was pure pleasure and I am pleased with the result. I love this pattern and will probably repeat it in different colors. Suns and spiders appear among others in Lithuanian selvedges, and their arrangement is my private contribution.

Express selvedges

As part of testing a new weaving technique on the inkle loom, a lot of meters of selvedge were created. The technique is fast, hence the name of the post. I wrote about it in the post Express weaving. All the selvedges are about 2 cm wide, and most of them are about 8 m long. Made from a mixture of wool from acrylic and traditional sheep. To tell the truth, it's a pity...

Today the weather gave me a chance. It's raining, so I'm sitting at home and I can write something. Photographing the selvedges required the use of additional lighting, but that's not a problem. A lot of nice things have been happening lately. There was a lot of work, walks in the Bydgoszcz Forest in May. The inkle loom was created with the joint efforts of the family. It's big and heavy, because it's not a table version, but a slow...

If anyone is wondering what to make for dinner today, or how to prepare the salmon they just bought, and ended up here, I apologize for the confusion, because the post is about the recently woven lace 😉 Gardening tip: remove faded hydrangea inflorescences in spring – they may come in handy in winter 😉 I don’t know much about colors, and especially…

Spring

ByThe haberdashery

For me, spring started at the end of January. A larger dose of warm light + wildly chirping sparrows in the form of ruffled balls attached to the hedge. Apparently there were frosts and snow later - I didn't notice. But I finished the border for the Wielewit team. It is 8.5 m long and 3 cm wide. Made of Oliwia, an acrylic-wool yarn. It is very…
