This post is really a record for me. The photos are awful but if you look at the light stripe on the outer edges you will see the treadling line followed. Threaded in 6 shaft echo, 28 tpi, 2 threads of 20/2 cotton together, charcoal and rust alternating.
My brief was the colours in these bracelets.
Below, echo weave, pohutukawa green weft. 2:1 twill
Below, turned taquete, apricot weft, two shuttles one with single thread the other with double thread. The pattern is not very distinct.
Below, 4 colour double weave with white and green in weft.
Below, 4 colour double weave, apricot and green in weft
Below, apricot weft, echo.
Below, echo, white weft, treadling line same as threading
Below, echo with 2:1 twill (which I just read is called jeans twill)
Below, echo with pale green cotton/linen weft
I think this last is echo again with a cream weft.
I seem to have missed photographing one which I'm sure was 4 colour double weave.Out of 9 towels there are just 2 left, 5 will go to the States and 2 are off to France.
These are beautiful Dianne, the memory trace of the beads, subtle and warm.
