Weave Samples
Unfortunately
I have found the first half of Unit X, weave, rather tough. When I
designed my warp I chose to make it natural and add colour through
the weft, I also chose to make it wide with five different width
sections to add variation to my work by using all or only some of the
warp. As I began to work on samples I encountered my disappointments
with my colour pallet and patterns.
Coloured Weft Samples
My
first set back was my warp, as it refused to stay tightly woven near
the spaces (above left-hand image), to rectify this I worked on a
maximum of two section of the warp. This did not effect my work much
as I was still able to add subtle textures through the weave pattern
and textures through the yarns. However I was bitterly upset with my
colour pallet, I found it extremely difficult to add the bright
fairground colours to my pale warp while keeping the design
effective. Again I found a solution to this problem, Dying (top
images). I found this to be quite effective as the ombre colour reminded me of the flowing of the thrill rides.
