Shibori Progress

Well, I have finished weaving my shibori scarves and amazingly, I have 7 scarves when I only planned for 6.  I must admit, I always allow plenty of extra warp. I have run out of warp for projects in the past, during my early days of weaving. Now begins all the fringing, gathering and dyeing.  I usually dye each piece a minimum of 3 times using various techniques and dye types.  Some of the pieces I plan to dye before gathering and some I will go straight to gathering up the fishing line and then begin the dye processes.  Sorry there are no photos today, but I promise to get some as I go along.

On a completely different subject, I have found some additional websites for you to explore.  Try these when you have a spot of time to indulge yourself.  I have only glanced at them, but plan to go back and study them in more detail as time allows.
