Warp #2

Now, my colour scheme I have got from geysers, originally inspired by yellowstone national park, I do have som photos a friend took in Iceland however I currently can't find them (really don't know what I've done with them) so a google image will have to do...

And this then inspired by warp to create my tartan (see below)
This is only the inspiration for colour.. I have a whole other concept behind my work I will go into another time. But I felt the colours worked really successful. I won't bore you with all the maths but I worked out my total count to create a 6 inch wide fabric and then decided on a random assortment of numbers (as much as I love things being technically challenging.. I also love doing things my own way, I just can't help it) so unbelieveably excited to weave.


Warp set up on a 24 shaft ARM loom.
