It's been over two months since I warped my Emilia and started weaving the fabric for a bag like the one at Doni\u2019s Deli<\/span><\/a>. Why two months? Well, I made some beginner mistakes, which I don't have to list, but the main one was I chose sock yarn for both the warp and weft. With a 12 dent heddle I probably would have been okay, but I only have a 10 dent heddle, and it took a gazillion rows and hours (at least!) to finish the fabric, which measures 100".<\/p>\n

Now for washing, hemming, sewing… Later. For now, I'm content to watch it come off the loom a couple dozen times. (Note, this short video is uploaded to Flickr):<\/p>\n

When I neared the end, I ran out of my main sock yarn and also my patience, so I dedicated the final few inches to experimenting with the clasped weft technique. If you're interested, there's a short tutorial available here<\/a>, and lots<\/a> of<\/a> lovely<\/a> examples<\/a> posted on blogs.<\/p>\n
