My Complex Weavers sample for a study group. It is a 5 end sample that morphs from a satin line to a curve. I studied about satins in the bibliography in this sample and learned about clean cuts and curves. The photos loaded show the front and back of the sample textile. Much as this hurts I will cut this up into 36 small pieces to submit to the sample exchange. However, this means I will get back 34 samples done by other weavers that I can learn from with their references. Two of the samples go into the Complex Weaver's Library. That library is located in the US and in Canada.
I've tied onto this warp and will be going from 30 epi (tencel from Heritage Yarn) to 60 epi, and learn the joys of working with tencel from Just our Yarn. Will post after I learn from this warp.
Please note I am experimenting with uploading a pdf and might have to reload info as I see how this works. This pdf is loaded here on the Drafts tab
Please note that I used a lift plan and this upload function does not allow me to enter the word lift plan so I entered "24" treadles , count the rows of lifts on the pdf sample page to see how many lifts there are...rigid heddle and pickup people can use each row to pick the same pattern on the lift plan.
Here is a link to Complex Weaver's, you can lurk as a member for years to get a grip on weaving, they have groups that study plain weave to other more esoteric items: www.complex-weavers.org/stdylist.htm Please note you must be a member of Complex Weavers's in order to participate in any study group.
