Initial Colour Pallets
To being my colour refinement I made a
number of yarn wraps inspired by my drawings and Photoshops, I
considered proportions, texture, and pattern. My initial selection of
colours was rather bright, and during a tutorial it was highlighted
to me that more subdued and earthy colours would reflect my theme of
natural texture better. My final colour pallet contains a
mixture of calm natural colours alongside a few brighter more vibrant
hues. This resolved pallet has been made from lambswool yarn due to
its speckled multi-tonal appearance, this appearance also matches my
visual research with high amounts of tonal change and constant subtle
texture. During my weaving however I would like to incorporate
mercerised cottons or shiny synthetics to brighten certain sections
and to add depth to my work.
Final Colour Pallet
Warp Yarn Wraps
Feedback from my tutorial has also
guided my in my warp design; as there was lots of clear space and
multiple varying colours in my visual research I was recommended to
develop a plain warp. Once again using lambswool I develop a number
of different warp compositions, but settled on a consistent pinstripe
half and half warp (bottom image). I feel that this slight amount of
colour will be very effective and give subtle pattern to all my woven
pieces.
