The photo is at kind of a weird angle because I took it of the finished cloth on its way onto the cloth beam. The weaving space where I'm working is fairly shallow for this width of warp because I'm winding onto the cloth beam every couple inches or so. So it doesn't look like there's very much done up top. I also finished spinning the tussah silk today, that "matches" this weaving, and have close to 400 yards of singles -- now one of many skeins of hand dyed, handspun silk I'm entering into the Humboldt County Fair this year.
I'm calling this colorway Tortiseshell and hopefully I'll get back around to more of it someday!

Is the weaving going to be shibori dyed? I'm wondering why there are black "overshots" in it.
Hi Kimberly,
Yes, I am planning to shibori dye it after weaving.
I can't wait to see how it turns out. I love all your shibori dying I think it's facinating to watch the before and after effects of color manipulation.
