WORKING ON NOW.

I have now been at my new studio for one month and have made it really cosy. Finally I am setting up a loom for some pillows.
The inspiration comes from a weaving class I did some time ago in the yarns from the Japanese yarncompany Nakachuu.

Different kinds of paperyarns from Nakachuu for the project.

In this sample I have purposely not woven equal. In an earlier post "Weaving at my job" from June 10 I have describe how to weave like this.

In the sample above the materials are linen, flat transperant paperyarn and a cellulose yarn in B/W, all from Nakachuu.

Ideas on how to make stripes in the reed and make movement in the weft direction.

Sample of honeycomb in linen warp and silk weft.

This design was sewn into a pillow last year and sold to the Art Association of Copenhagen University Hospital.

Later on I will write about the process on the loom.
