< 50 Shades of Grey

I was definitely remiss in blogging about this one! I finished it a few days ago.

It was such fun to weave that I barely stopped to take photos.

A very neutral colour scheme, but lots of interesting texture and additions.

There are bits of ribbon, blobs of roving, and hairy novelty yarns,

boucle yarns, sparkly threads, and a sprinkling of beads,

metallic ribbon, handspun, and a few dangling jersey knit tubes.

It all adds up to a lot more visual interest than you might expect from a monochromatic weaving.

I was kind of sorry to see the end of that warp. It did not end with the cowl though. In future posts I'll be displaying a couple of hats woven from the same warp. They are having their hand knit ribbing added now. Unfortunately that process takes much longer than weaving off the warp!
