I like clasped weft too, and you've really used it to create a beautiful design. Quite striking.

I see you used chenille as warp. How was that? I have hesitated using chenille in weaving because I am scared of several things: It worming (it does strange things in knitting we call worming where it looks like it just sorta "quit" and yarns hang out) and can you get tension with it and finally, I am worried about it fraying out the chenille part..Did you experience any of that? Also, what sort of loom did you use? I have a jack loom.

Notes

I wove three clasped weft rayon chenille scarves in this series, each a little different.  Although I hesitated to try clasped weft for the longest time (why, I'm now asking myself), I am really enjoying exploring this technique.

You can read more details about these scarves on my blog
