A few years ago I wove a piece that was very fine in detail. You really have to get quite close to appreciate the subtleties. It is narrow (12 inches at its widest point) and long (51 inches including hanger cord and fringe). It has a simple weave structure, called tabby or plain weave, and I wove it using shades of brown and burgundy and mauve yarns, Cleveland sage branches, and a metallic thread of silver green and red. A few metallic beads at top and bottom also adorn the piece. Here's a photo. Stay tuned.....tomorrow I will post its twin.
