I have been wanting to weave with handspun singles yarn, so I spun up a bunch of woolen-spun singles wool yarn for both the warp and the weft. I usually warp my loom from front to back, but since I was using singles I warped from back to front -something new for me. I also sized all my yarn with gelatin.
The wool is from a few different breeds, all natural colors. I also have been wanting to weave this large advancing twill diamond pattern for a long time.
I’m about 1/3 of the way through my warp and I am on the last of my weft yarn. I will either have to spin up some more or switch to other handspun yarn I have. I’d really like to keep it as singles, though, and all my other yarn is two-ply.
I will add more to this post later.
