 Kathie, Would be interested in knowing what weight rayon you used, I am weaving a table runner in rayon 20/2 weight now. Also have you tryed weaving cotton and rayon together and if so what did you think of the results? Like the project.

Sorry to say that I don't know weight that rayon is.  I bought it on eBay as a boucle.  It's not exactly my idea of boucle, there are no circles of yarn plied in, but it's like a zig-zag, mini rick-rack.  It's been fun to work with and it dyes like a dream.  Wish I'd bought another cone or 2 of it. I haven't tried weaving rayon and cotton together, but that sounds like a great idea.  I'll keep that in the back of my mind as do my dyeing this summer.

Thank you for the kind words.  It's a fun weave structure.

Notes

This a really fun weave structure.  I inserted oval spangle sequins randomly in the pockets, so it's quite glittery, but hard to get the glitz in the picture.
