Description
This episode is all about adding colour and weave sequences to units and blocks. Weβll start by adding my favourite Dark/Light sequence from Season 3 E4, which was Dark/Light/Dark/Dark/Light. Weβll add it to units and then to blocks and make that cute little motif bigger and bigger and bigger. This should set your mind on fire!
Things we will learn:
- How to overlay C&W sequences from our C&W gamp S02E02 onto units and blocks, to make these motifs as big as we want.
- We use D/L and D/D/L/D/L in the composition.
- How to bring other sequences into the treadling
- We can also play with all those other tie-ups from S05E01 and S06E02.
- How to warp with 2 warps, a dark warp and a light warp.
- A discussion about whether we want to tie knots or warp with 2 warps.
- One isn't right, one isn't wrong...they are just different ways to warp and it's good to know.
