WEAVING // BITS




this supersoft 2-ply navy wool plus fluffy-as-an-angora-bunny mohair/wool yarn in black made up a fine warp.  i`ve been weaving black 100% mohair across the weft with variations (some wool boucle, merino boucle, mohair lace and the navy yarn) for texture, plus my favorite silk-merino multicolor silver roving and a silver silk thread.  for some reason i`m drawn to this color combination time and time again.  it reminds me of my maternal grandmother- she has worn navy ever single day of her life, and she always dyes her hair black no. 1.  had to take a few days off due to a flu so this is still on the loom.  i don`t mind taking my time, helps to get it right.
