Exhibition Cloak - Work in Progress

A lull in other weaving projects seemed like a good time to bring out another warp for my cloak project. This time a darker blue than before and a bit more heavy handed on the copper. This piece will make the two panels for the centre back of the cloak.

 A narrow panel so threading was quick

 I needed at least 6 shuttles so had to fossick for them. 

Used a mix of throw shuttles and sticks.

 Quite pleased with the "shreds and patches" effect which gives the cloak its title

 Pressing and trimming took a while. 

I like to leave trimming the ends off until last to make sure they are secure

 My show and tell for July

Lucet cords will be used to lace the panels together
