My wife has been really busy weaving! Check it out.
I’ve been so impressed with my wife’s new passion (obsession) with weaving. She is really learning fast and trying out some cool new things.
Here is just one of her basic straight weaves, but it turns out really cool with the way the yarn changes colour.
Recently she’s been experimenting with some patterns and designs. She did this by weaving just half way across with one color and then meeting it on the other side with another colour.
Here’s another cool thing she tried by just putting in a thin strip of this thicker wool she’s calls rovings, which I think means that it’s more loose fibers that aren’t yet spun into yarn.
The only reason I knew that is because she is also experiment with spinning yarn as well!
She’s really getting pretty good pretty quick. But that just means it’s time for an upgrade and we’re driving down south this weekend to pick up an ever bigger 4 shaft loom.
I hope this post will touch everyone. Really a really nice post.
Glad she's enjoying her new hobbies XD And those things she's made are awesome! Could sell them online or at those little market things or something :)
Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold
Very beautiful.
I used to needle felt using rovings.
There is a huge market for hand woven goods. And even the spun yarn. Does she plan on selling her works? If so, she may want to check out Etsy.
Very nice. And your wife is talented at that. A wonderful hobby to have such Passion for. Thanks for sharing @phelimint
