Notes

I used my favorite color…..PINK! With a 10 dent reed and a light beat. The yarn is threaded in every other slot and hole, hoping to make a loose weave. The mohair yarn was a little too big for the 10 dent reed. It mostly did OK, but at the end I noticed some abrasion and the hairy parts were getting stuck in the heddle. So next time if I want to use mohair I’ll put it in the weft instead. The eyelash yarn is so lovely and soft, and was fun to weave. The Cascade 220 worsted fit perfectly in the heddle and had no problems at all. That’s a nice yarn.
