I wove then sewed this dress for a baby in my life! I can't wait to see if it fits!

Three years since our weaving group had an online workshop weekend with Natalie Drummond, learning about deflected double weave #weaving #8shaftweaving #deflecteddoubleweave

Deflected double weave on the loom showing bands of motifs separated by horizontal and vertical stripes. The warp is Teal and Jeans, but the weft has greens and peacock colours.

More deflected double weave, this time a composition for a wall hanging. These colours are coming together nicely, I think! #weaving #handwoven #deflecteddoubleweave #artweaving #art

Deflected double with showing 3D effects due to 1/3 and 3/1 twill in striping sections. Weft colours are “Cayenne” and black.

When hunting for a sturdy placemat sett I discovered the DDW with two ends per unit creates 1/3 and 3/1 twill (striped sections), and this creates ridged textures at this sett. Awesome!! #weaving #deflecteddoubleweave #twill #colourandweave

I’m at it again, this time with a tighter sett and using “Primrose in Diamonds” from MPD’s green book. #weaving #deflecteddoubleweave #8shafts

Handwoven sampler drying on the clothes line, showing deflected double weave patterned from an overshot draft.

That exciting moment when you pull the weaving out of the washing machine and see what happened to all the floats: magic! This sampler is my attempt to get my head around deflected double weave, in particular, using overshot to develop the pattern.

I've seen a couple of posts about deflected double weave, which reminded me of my sampler that I made a few years ago. Something else to return to and explore again #weaving #DeflectedDoubleWeave

Silk and hand-dyed cotton deflected doubleweave scarf on the loom with a pair of boat shuttles sitting atop.

Boot treads in the snow. The pattern looks similar to the center pattern of the woven cloth.

Maybe I just see weaving patterns everywhere, but I couldn’t help but to notice that my boot print in the snow looks like what I’m weaving this afternoon.

My little basement space has poor lighting, but I’m glad I have a place for my loom. I keep trying to trade spaces with my kids, but they’re not having it. #weaving #fiberartist #deflecteddoubleweave
