Here is the finished cloth I wove with the Icelandic tog and thel yarns I spun. The first picture in each set is fresh off the loom, pre fulling. The second picture in each set is the fulled and finished cloth.
The fact that I was able to weave three yards instead of just two, coupled with the fact that it didn’t shrink up as much as I had anticipated in the fulling process means that I have more cloth than I thought. Pre-fulling it measured 3 yards long, 28 inches wide. After fulling it measures 2.8 yards long, 21 inches wide.
Beautiful work! I love how you've worked such gentle stripes into the weft. It must ave taken sooo long to spin all of that!

ReplyDeleteYou are amazingly talented. I was pulled into your blog this evening as I was curious about growing/harvesting/processing flax. Your flax journey was fascinating, and now I’m all curious about wool varieties and natural dyes!
