Beginning Weave

 C O N S T R U C T 

This term I joined the weaving group for the first time. At first I was excited as I have always wanted to try weave due to my work being heavily influenced with cultural woven fabrics, however I found myself more than terrified as the pressure is on moving into Level 5.  

I begun to get a feel for weave by immersing myself in all things weave related and getting to know the weave room and machines. Below are some photographs of my first hank making attempts. 



I intended to dye some of these yarns as tester samples and so I made 6 different hanks out of a mixture of wools, cottons and viscose.
