Notes
Made using linen yarn from stash. Breast Cancer ribbon draft fro handweaving.net (61261 Pink ribbon) woven on 8 shaft Varpapuu Table Loom using lilac linen yarn plyed so thicker. Frequent small sections woven using mixture of handspun and commercial yarn from stash to add interest. Also some parts woven using fine silk and fine crochet cotton.
The main aim was to weave the breast cancer ribbon and the extra colour and silk/cotton thread was used to provide interest between start and end.
My first time weaving using Summer and Winter draft as base. Took a while (3 tries) to get it threaded up correctly and thank you to Bonnie Inouye (who designed the draft) for her help.
