The eight shaft table loom has been sitting naked for too long. After lunch I said "enough is enough" and wound a short warp of two colors of silk noil. The yarn was hiding in my stash because I had always thought it was too fragile for warp. But today was a day for seizing opportunity. It seems to be working out OK.
The structure is called Jin, another name for turned taqueté. The warp is 2 colors alternated. The weft is a handspun wool/silk blend.
Here is this morning's sky with a view toward Paris Mountain from my front porch. I'd like to say it was my color inspiration, but such is not the case. Mere coincidence.
