For this one, I used a cone of cotton and a cone of cottolin, warped together.
For the weft, I'm using some dk cotton I have in my stash.
It's a simple set of placemats called "Elegant Placemats" from the Weaving Today website. It's a free e-book.
The pattern on the blue is called huck. The pattern on the yellow is called huck lace.
Unfortunately, while I was just getting into the yellow one, I went to advance the warp, and the ratchet pawl snapped and broke off. UGH!!
It goes on that pin there on the metal bar, below the cog
Just snapped.
And I just about snapped!! I've emailed Camilla Valley Farms to see if there is a way I can replace it, or the entire part (with the metal rod). *crosses fingers*
If I can just replace the pawl, great!, otherwise, I'll probably have to cut my project off the loom and restart the yellow one. One placemat done, 3 to go.
