In the past I read a lot about study groups. I want to tell about my first study group exchange. I´m member of an online study group in Germany. Every jear we select a new theme. Each of us  weaves a farbic  and send an example to the other members. Theme for 2011 was "Deflected Doubleweave". I took a weekend class and learned a lot, then I worked at home on. I adapted a draft I had found in a weaver magazine from Switzerland. It took me  three attemps to find the right sett ( what you can see on the pictures) . But than it worked and the points I expected came to the fore. Today I sent many envelopes to the others with my examples and weaving report. It was so much fun. And now I´m looking forward to the post of the others!
