When I had finished weaving all the cushions, I looked at what was left and decided I had to use it now. Otherwise it would disappear upstairs in the stash and never be seen again. I had a ghost warp on the Megado for the cushions and used that and designed the stripes according to what I had left!! By itself, the warp is very rich and dark. The weft is undyed yarn and lightens the fabric a lot. Click on the photo to see a closer view. I intend to put the fabric through the washing machine to felt it but only a little! I will have a little less than 4 metres and the width will probably be 19 inches. I don't think that will be enough to get a coat out of. It is weaving up very fast and I must stop and consider the Diversified Plain Weave Project so that I can order up yarn tomorrow if it is needed.
