my next weave i wove 6 yards IN 6 DAYS of kelly green cotton
JAN 19-24
MORE PHOTOS BELOW OF THE FULL 32 YARDS.
i realized that i needed 3 more yards of green to make a coat so i wove an additional 3 yards of green but on a black warp .
i used thrums and torn merino fabric strips from a stole that got damaged . i loved it and now it has place in my new weaving .
this was my beginning weaving 1st yard on the mustard warp .
But then it all changed.
I woke up and i had a vision of the monks walk for peace so i dedicated the remainder of this weaving
colors for their peace walk . Yarn hust just poured from my shuttles
INSPIRED FOR MONTHS BY THE BUDDHIST MONKS WALKING FOR PEACE
I USE THE SAFFRON COLORS OF THEIR GARMENTS AS INSPIRATION
If you look closely you can see the tattered spent Buddhist pray flags i carded and added to my hand spun yarn batts as i spun some if that yarn in this weaving.
