Do you think this challenge using your tea towel pattern is suitable for a very brand new beginner who hasn't even down a twill yet? I got my four shaft last weekend and have my first piece warped and started.
Great question! It will be a pretty steep learning curve if you haven't tackled a twill yet. None of the elements are difficult, but there are quite a few elements to keep track of. That's up to you! However, at the very least, I would definitely recommend joining the FB Group when the doors open! I always, always learn something from the participating weavers! Hope that helps!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the term "colour & weave" also relatively new? Let's put it this way: it never cropped up as anything other than a concept (unnamed) when I was first learning to weave, but I see quite a few references to it in discussions these days.
Thank you for this! I just purchased a draft on WEBS for a shadow weave baby blanket and this sheds more light on translating it. 🥰
You're welcome! Have fun!!
OMG THIS!! I'm in my weaving program and learning shadow weave and this is AWESOME, thank you for the digestible takes on this!
Oh yay!! I'm so glad it was helpful!!

I luv shadow weave... But my book doesn't have it in and not much on the internet.
You're right! Because it is a newer style of pattern, there isn't as much about it online yet - I agree!

Oooh, good question! I came across it just a few years ago. But I'm not sure when it became a common description. Thanks for the note!!
