This year's patterned

Recently I have created a lot of simpler selvedges, but I have also made a few spun ones. They all have patterns from finds and are in the form of stripes. Plain weave, picking technique, and the raw material is wool. I had additional trouble with the first selvedge – I wove it on a yoke loom at shows in variable conditions 🙂

  • A series of selvedges in national colours

    Among the dwindling supplies of yarn I had 2 skeins of pure thick wool. The red and white look beautiful. I'm just a little sad that the association with the national flag comes to some people as if with simultaneous disgust or a kind of shame. I'll be disgusted if someone associates my selvedges with a pop culture overgrown dwarf that has been flying before our eyes for…
