Off my Dryad rigid heddle table loom. Weft ends still to tidy, but very pleased with this. All the warp & most of the weft is my handspun Portland wool blended with Kool-Aid dyed mohair. Weft incusions of Wensleydale locks, ribbons, beads & various synthetic mixes. I had thought of making a bag with a fringed flap. but that might get too much wear. Any ideas beyond a wall hanging are very welcome. By the way, I have an original 12 dpi heddle, & an adapted Ashford 5 dpi heddle – which I used for this. I’d be pleased to hear of any other alternatives or suppliers I could try.
