So the weaving class is over and now I need to stay ahead of my weaving projects at home. The last project that I did in class was weave fabric to make a bag. The guild had set out a challenge to make a bag for the fair. We were all given cotton warp. When I had received a handmade table loom, there were 4 cones of yarn. This was a green/brown mix. I am not even sure what the fiber content is. It isn't necessarily my colors but I figure this is the time to use it up. I followed the Rose Path threading. It really gives a different look from each side. It actually is the color scheme that my mother-in-law likes. Now I need to figure out how to make some bags out of it. I'm thinking a tote and a zippered bag so she can keep all of her knitting stash in the bag. Now if I can get on the ball, I can even have it down by next Sunday (Mother's Day). We will see. If not, I can always give her one of the handmade towels from my class.
