This is a pretty piece, with a sacred appeal. It’s a nice linen weight for a runner. I’ve use 10/2, so about the same. Is the warp pale yellow?  It really toned down with the warmth of your weft!  I’m still amazed at that!

Thanks. It's a gold yellow and is a bit darker than the photo shows. But it works nicely. :)

I did an Italian hem stitch (ovals) and twisted fringe.

I can't see any picture of the overshot runner. The picture(thumbnail) I see is for a different project (huck lace throw). (OTOH, ReedGuy writes he could not add a photo, so it doesn't really surprise me.)

So... nice to know that "This is a pretty piece, with a sacred appeal."

I also can't see any yarn spec (only the sett), nor can I see the draft mentioned (nor a link to a draft).

Is that just me? We sort-of-established that, months ago, diff ppl saw/were shown diff things. (Today I have tried 3 diff browsers: firefox, chrome, edge - now posting from firefox)

Can now upload the project photos. Trouble is it crops the image and doesn't scale it. A serious hinderance. And does not show link to the draft.

Just beautiful.  Hope you have a chance to write up the draft for the pattern at some point.

This is really lovely and I absolutely love the color combination! Your Italian hemstitching is beautiful. I've not seen this before. Is there a resource for hemstitch varieties?

Thanks so much for sharing this project!

I feel like a blind person in the group.  Can't sea any photos, but everyone comments about the look and color of the cloth. I'll take everyone's word for it. ;-)

It was there at one time, but as I said on the other thread photos disappeared. :)

The project is over on Ravelry in the link in comments. ;)
