The full name of this piece is "I don't know whether I'm coming or going. . . .weft becomes warp becomes weft becomes warp."
This is just a little funky weaving I've been playing around with, while I watch TV in the evening
The general shape consists of two intersecting double weave tubes. I started with copper wire wefts and wove the first vertical tube, but left the warp pieces free on each side. I then used these dangling weft pieces to create more warp on each side and wove the horizontal open tubes, using the weft wires as warp threads. After awhile, I used the wire again as weft threads and again left them hanging on the sides. Finally, I wove the copper wires free hand into the shape that's on the very front.
The black is a 90% wool / 10% nylon yarn. I did this on a Leclerc Dorothy table loom.
