FINALS ARE OVER!!!!

This is my final project for weaving class, another shibori dyed scarf.  I used rayon this time and its feels so nice and light and drapes really well.

Don't WEAVE Me This Way

This is my favorite thing I've made in weaving class this semester! It's a shibori-dyed scarf. The ends aren't finished yet in this picture, but I'm really excited about it and couldn't wait to put it up!

Here are some process pictures, I don't have any from the very beginning, but first I wove a white plain-weave scarf and then painted it with colored dye.  I had woven in supplementary threads throughout also, which I pulled tightly to cinch up the scarf before I put it in black dye...

So then it looked like this!  After that I cut the cinching threads to reveal the color underneath:

This was so much fun because no one knew what their scarves would look like until they were done, and everyone's  scarf turned out completely different!

Un-be-WEAVE-able!

   I have weaving class on Fridays, and last week we took a field trip to buy supplies. Who knew shopping for thread would be so much fun?

There were spools in every color imaginable!

Soooo many different kinds...

It was really hard to to narrow down my options, but these are my final purchases:

I've been weaving a lot this weekend and I almost have my first scarf finished, pictures soon!
