Waffle Weave 2
Living on the edge
Constance sits at the selvedge of the Waffle Weave tea towel.
The weaving is going slowly, because the loom is on the other side of town, and we can’t just sit down and weave a little when we have five minutes to spare. Still, we are almost half-way done and like the result as the pattern is getting established.

What a lovely weaving. It looks rather complicated. Does Constance do the counting, or just keep an eagle eye open for mistakes?
She keeps me good company and sends out for tea when the counting gets muddled.
I always wanted to learn to weave. I tried it once, and it’s much harder than it looks, especially dressing the loom.
And I don’t think I have the concentration for it…….lol I hope Constance doesn’t fall off! It looks like she’s in a precarious position! 🙂
During the weaving there is a lot of action – throwing the shuttle, beating the wefts, cranking the handles, treading on the pedals, Constance only sits on the web when I am taking a break.
Waffle weave! That looks very complicated indeed. Amazing!!
It is a variation on the twill weave, and much harder to explain than to do!
Your work is very nicely done and such pretty colors worked together. I think I’ll solicit one of my Hittys to go for tea when things get muddled here…very good idea.
A Restorative cuppa tea cures almost anything in this household.
Constance is such a well rounded HItty…so many interests and so many talents. She seems the perfect companion for multi talented YOU!! Lovely weaving.
She certainly has a round head, and a stout figure, and is my constant as well as perfect companion.
