This warp is 16/2 bamboo and is actually two-tone, although the contrast is extremely low: Pale Grey and White. I'm weaving deflected double weave with two ends per unit, hoping for a luscious scarf. The borders are narrower than I planned because I made a threading error right at the beginning and couldn't face re-threading the entire piece in pale fine threads! This photo shows one repeat with three "roses" apparent. The "Stars" will appear as I weave the second repeat. The weft is "Cactus" (like a Sage green) with White. #deflecteddoubleweave #DDW #8shaft #multishaftweaving

Threading error dilemma solved: sacrifice the border to avoid re-threading! Finally I stopped procrastinating and now I'm weaving away on this deflected double weave design I call "Roses and stars". Looks great, but next time I'll use more contrast in the warp! #handwoven #weaving #colourandweave

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
