Class Coasters

I made these for each of my class mates from the weaving class I attending at Red Stone Glen.  They were beaten to be weft-faced and really feel like a small rug.

Alpaca Coasters II

I love to weave these even though they are time consuming.  I am not sure but they seem to be about 30 picks per inch.  They have to be felt to understand how soft they are.

Drops Alpaca

My favorite combination to date.  Alpaca is very soft and fuzzy.

Playing with Cotton

I like the combination of linen warp with cotton weft.

More Linen and Cotton

Trying different combinations to see what we liked.  The linen are nice when wet-finished.  Cotton tightens up.

Linen Coaster

My very first try with the small loom from Flax & Twine.  They are a little rough but I like 'em.
