Winter Leaves: Sample #1


Four inches of my first leaf motif color scheme (winter) woven. I'm experimenting with the beat and the rhythm of the treadling.  On my my table loom, I beat the weft shot with an open shed because it looks better. For this sample, beating with the shed open gave me 13 picks per inch 

I can kind of see leaves. Maybe they are upside down? I'll try a firmer beat next.

Yarns are cotton.
Warp is in 8/2s.
Weft is 6/2.
Sett is 20 e.p.i.
