Are You Bored Yet?

Lookie, I made another scarf!

This time I left the novelty yarns and rigid heddle loom alone, put a steel blue warp on my 8 shaft loom (with floating selvage) and wove a 2x2 twill with rainbow coloured wool. The colour isn't right (the rainbow is a lot more intense and the blue is a lot bluer), but this is the best picture I could get.

I thought I'd set the warp too closely when I first took it off the loom, (12dpi) but after I washed it, it loosened up and now drapes beautifully.

I had so much fun that immediately put on a warp for a point twill sampler. I've already started with some waffle weave, then plan to go onto some twill-play :-)
