Very elegant - looks like it would be the cover fabric for some expensive rich furnishings.

What type of pattern is that?  Is there something more than a supplemental warp going on?

Just beautiful - can't stop looking at it.

This is amazing! You have simplicity and complexity all at once.

Thank you all for your kind comments about this yardage.  Becky Ashenden of Vavstuga Swedish Weaving designed this warp originally as apron fabric.  The sleying was tricky because the sett was altered for each "stripe" within the fabric.  Cool, eh?

When I retire, can I come up there and be your loom assistant? ;-)

Every one of the projects you post is spectacular!

Notes

This warp was provided by Vavstuga Swedish Weaving in Shelburne Falls, MA.  The yardage is quite beautiful and I'm planning to have a vest sewn out of it.
