My first time doing clasped weft technique! It's slow but so so striking! It has unsquared my overshot but I'm treating that as a feature this time.

You throw the shuttle in from one side, loop it round your second yarn and throw it back through the same shed to pull the second yarn into the cloth....

.... And then you beat very very slowly and carefully while pulling on each yarn to get the colour change exactly where you want it, and then you carry on and admire/curse your result. It's an absolute bastard to unweave.

For these colours I am making a zigzag between them, but for my next pair of colours (blue and orange) I will do something else.

Double cloth pick up for class! It’s genuinely irritating how obnoxious this is to set up and weave because the result is SO pretty. I drafted this up for a different class last semester (which is also posted on my page) and I’m hoping to get at least two full dragons if not more.

Woooo my biggest project to date is off the loom! The warp was about 7 yards long, 418 ends. Managed to just barely squeeze 7 hand towels out of it after learning the hard way that warp chicken is much more taxing than yarn chicken. I'm really happy with how they turned out, though; excited to see how they block!

Started a new weaving! I’m trying to use up all my acrylic yarn so it’s been a little difficult to work with but that’s ok. I’m liking how it’s turning out!
