WHAT'S ON YOUR LOOM?

2-HARNESS TABLE TOP LOOM WOVEN SCARF
ADVANCED 3-D ART
2-harness tabletop loom, warping board & weaving essentials

Let's see what our 3rd year 3-D girls are up to.
In 2nd year 3-d they learned to weave on a frame loom,
so this year they graduated to a 2-harness tabletop loom,
and also learned to use a warping board.
Above we see senior Shreya Sheth helping senior Jacqueline Yu remember her warping sequence.
And below Shreya is bored waiting for her turn.
Pretty cute Shreya!

Here is Jac's lovely and yummy finished scarf hanging on display at Open House.
And a couple of close-ups.
Fringe was optional.
I really like how Jac played with several different sizes and types of weft yarns.


Next we have Shreya's finished scarf.
She went a completely different route then Jacqueline.
She was inspired by hounds tooth cloth and made up her own pattern
for a very striking piece.
The girls told me the warping process was way too tedious but once they started the actual weaving they were loving it.
Yeah!

  1. Thank you for another look at your wonderful seniors ... and yes, I quite agree with their take on warping!

    1. Man oh man do I miss those two girls. We had so much fun last year, and they created so many important works. Can't wait for them to come back to visit.
