I used embroidery thread and needles to weave it. At 12 epi, it was pretty fine. My goal when I began was to work in more curves and colors. You can tell I jumped into &#8220;finish&#8221; mode where the lines start traveling from selvedge to selvedge. I went back to shapes near the end.<\/p>\n<p>The Lightning Weaver has little hooks on either end, which makes it impossible to weave up until the edge. So, I&#8217;m left with some white threads poking out, but that&#8217;s okay. Throughout the weaving, I overlapped where I started and stopped threads. This keeps the back very tidy. Any loose threads can be safely trimmed away.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/workingyarn\/16210173868\/sizes\/c\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/7449\/16210173868_a994f04e01_c.jpg\" alt=\"Tapestry Experiment\" width=\"599\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/workingyarn\/16396068431\/sizes\/c\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/8615\/16396068431_faa12ddd7b_c.jpg\" alt=\"Tapestry Experiment\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Back:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/workingyarn\/16210423450\/sizes\/c\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/7324\/16210423450_2485875833_c.jpg\" alt=\"Tapestry Experiment\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It only took me about ten months to finish this 4&#8243;x6&#8243; weaving.
