Back to the little loom

With my scarf currently sitting on my table loom and progressing, deliberately, slowly so Mary can take me through each step - I need to get my weaving fix. So this weekend it'll be back to the inkle loom.

Here's some bits I made earlier - this jade green band is for a security badge holder that I wear around my neck daily at work. The selvedges are a bit wavy but not too bad and I love the colour.

It uses some stunning Filatura Di Crosa cotton with a lovely golden mixed thread running through it (the yarn came from a thrift shop and sadly looks like it is not currently made any more)


I love this yarn 

This celtic knotwork band is for a belt for my elder daughter. This has pretty good selvedges but the pattern is a little variable in length due to irregular tension/beating. One day I'll weave something perfect.

The pattern was lifted directly from inkleweaving.com - thanks Tracy and was woven in #3 mercised cotton which I picked up from Michaels in San Jose when I was over on a business trip last Dec.
