Description
This episode is all about adding colour and weave sequences to units and blocks. We’ll start by adding my favourite Dark/Light sequence from Season 3 E4, which was Dark/Light/Dark/Dark/Light. We’ll 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.
