Last blanket...almost
/I just finished two twin size blankets using a customer's natural colored yarn and her yarn that I dyed. This will be shipped tomorrow along with the king-size blanket. I've had the heater on in my shop all day so that I can get these dry. I also finished a couple of v-shawls.
The blankets have the same warp. This one is woven with 2-ply light brown weft.
I didn't have enough of the customer's yarn for weft in the second blanket so I used some of mine. I took a chance on using 2 strands of singles yarn wound together on the pirn. Normally I wouldn't try to wind 2 together using an end-feed shuttle, but in this case the yarns wound around each other and I didn't have any trouble at all. So this weft is one strand of light gray and one strand of dark gray yarn together. I think it gives a nice depth to the blanket.
I have one more custom order, a king size blanket in several colors, but it will wait until after Christmas. The last time I did that (last year) I broke my arm before I got the left-over weaving finished.
