Shag Weaving 02/05/2010
 
Picture
I'll be weaving all weekend to get this shag dress done for Wednesday.  The pic on the loom is my colour inspiration; one of the Vancouver Sky photos I took in Abbotsford and manipulated in Photoshop.
I hand-dyed all of this fabulous hand-spun merino/angora that I bought from a lovely local source.  The warp is 100% linen and I am using traditional Turkish carpet weaving techniques for structural integrity.
