And the beat goes on

So far today I am working on a rayon scarf. The warp is medium green and a dark tan. For the weft I am using gold.  When I use rayon yarn I beat lightly. I like the look and feel of it after the scarves are washed. One of these days I will make one for me! I am sorry but the colors just aren't showing up well.

I am weaving this on the Lervad loom. I really like the feel of the hanging beater. Old looms are wonderful.




Here is the gold I am using for weft. I had to go outside to get a better picture!

Max is growing by leaps and bounds. Yesterday he weighed 49.5 pounds and he isn't six months old yet! I will have to take a picture soon so you can see.

  1. Max looked great in the picture posted yesterday over on Loomy Tunes, sorry I missed him.
    I had to look closely to see the stripes in that warp!
