Another "project" for self education and expanding weave technique. This is my 3 color representation of the 4 shaft waffle draft on Handweaving.net. Thanks Michael for a very fast expedited order. Truth being that my wife has been constantly throwing away dishcloths that seem to be staining fast and no amount of laundering with bleach gets them clean, so these will become dishcloths.
Since it seemed to want to rain all morning the best activity was to finish weaving, hem and wet finish the dishcloths. Besides changing color combinations, number of weft repeats and color patterns I did add some of the hand dyed rayon [ yellow and dark green] just to see a different effect. I did start a regular weave tabby stop / start border which after running a zigzag stitch on each part made cutting and hemming the warp ends easier.
