After last Monday's post that Fotini used jute, a completely natural and slightly rough material, she is experimenting today with a synthetic but totally soft and colorful thread!
Actually it is acrylic and it is made for knitting, but it looks to be just fine for weaving on the loom, too. Myself, I loved the colors and the texture. Great for some close ups!
You should be familiar with the loom's operation by now, but a few new shots don't hurt, do they?
The lever used to move forward the weft reminds me the jack I use when I get a flat tire but it is much easier!
After the end of the weaving the new weft can be cut from the loom!
And while the warps are waiting patiently for the next project to begin, we are moving to the next phase!
The loose warps have to be tied in small groups.
And the new cloth has to be sewed into a pillowcase.

All the pictures and the words are mine.
