Learned a lot
My husband asked,”When it comes to Ridgid Heddle, what is your passion?.” After thinking long and hard I did find 2 passions I want to explore more with the rigid heddle. Here they are.
1. I always consider color and texture in each project in relation to gradients. I am passionate to learn how to create outstanding gradients on the RH loom.
2. Multi heddle weaving. I want to explore gradients and multi heddle.
Other areas to explore are dyeing and decorative trims.
Here is a scarf I designed. In the beginning I tried to use the Fibonacci Gradient with the 4 shaft weaves on 3 heddles. I learned a great deal. I knew 2 of my wefts were close in value but forgot to take into account the warp was also close in value. Next time…..use the 2 wefts but change the warp. I tried doubling yarns….liked the look. I tried alternating colors and also doing a 2 color 2 alternating color. I liked both. I did a point twill for most of the scarf but in certain areas added an alternating twill. I think I would stick with one or the other. Here is the result.
