weaving

five hours from the loom in pieces in the box to a complete scarf.

phone dead, and I'm lazy, so no pics yet.

my new schacht cricket loom, 8-dent reed it came with, bleached and unbleached cotton, houndstooth pattern (warp two strands alternating colors-AABBAABBAABBAA=weft the same), 58 strands wide, tassels are 6 strands each, ten tassels (beginning and end of two color weft tied off with end tassels, so total number is 60).

freaking LOVE it.
