Notes: 

This was 1st of two table runners to experiment with weaving with a 4.75" wide black tulle that I got a while back.  I used it in warp and weft.  It was too big for heddle so I ran a length of turquoise seed yarn beside each tulle end, with it through heddle and a loop from heddle eye around the tulle.  The slub and polyester were threaded 2/dent in 8 dent reed; the tulle/seed were in one dent. Tried a couple of wefts but liked the rayon chenille best.  Pattern doesn't show much, but the spots of color in the polyester show much more on one side than the other.  Too scratchy and still for a scarf so its for the table.
