Bookmarks & doll rugs for the Chilmark School demo

6 June 2000
We gave a weaving demo for kids from the Chilmark School and handed out bookmarks (or doll house rugs, depending on your needs) to each student.  All were woven on the same warp described in the first picture at the top of this page.

 

Dishtowels May 2000
Katherine warped the Mighty
 Wolf at 36 epi, using 20/2 cotton, for
 dish towels (of course)!  The pattern
 is an adaptation of the shawl that is
 the cover story of Weaver's, issue
 13, page 34.  Purple warp, wefts will
 be various colors.

 The bolt comes off the loom, Jan 01. 
 Now to be cut and hemmed.  Some
 of the dish towels are made with a
 shiny or sparkling weft and will be
 scarfs.  It is hard to take a picture of
 20 yards of warp! Bolt comes off the loom
