RETHINKING 'WEAVING YARNS'

摘要

WHEN WEAVERS THINK OF "WEAVING YARNS," I'm guessing most of us think of yarn on cones: cost effective, easy to handle, and strong enough for weft or warp. But the wide world of fiber doesn't all fit on a cone. Lots of us also knit or crochet or handspin. We have stashes full of lovely skeins that could find their way onto our looms if only we were sure they could handle the rigors of weaving. I recently decided to test the limits of what can be used for warp, and the result was better than I imagined.
