Three ways to look at the 7th repeat of Q'iswa Kuti ñawi-yuq -- twisted rope design with garden hoes and eyes. One more, then I plan to decide what I will weave next. #KeepWeaving #StudentWeaver #AndeanBackstrap #WeaveFromMemory https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ-ZlWDFarW/?igshid=18wk1wy5lgmab

My oversized, long warp is set up for eight-pairs so that I can continue doing more variations from "Textiles Traditions of Chinchero" by Nilda Callañaupa Alvarez. This one is Kutij Q'iswa on 8-pairs, bottom of page 109. (Rope that looks like garden hoes) #AndeanBackstrap #StudentWeaver #KeepWeaving https://www.instagram.com/p/CJnPDYjlTCw/?igshid=1jvmgorvyrksm

THE BIG REVEAL: December was a "Contest Shenanigans" month in our Spinning class with @abbysyarns - and here's what Stephanie and I accomplished. Our most ambitious weaving to date, all from handspun, all accomplished between Dec 3 and today. #AndeanBackstrap #SpinningToWeave #Handmade #Shenanigans #CanchaMasi https://www.instagram.com/p/CJcFRzbFvci/?igshid=15xq3zieqgqa2

Finally added some wachu-wachu (furrow design) to this Three-Pairs warp from a class with Abby, just so I could add the finished band to the stack #KeepWeaving #ThreePairs #AndeanBackstrap https://www.instagram.com/p/CA8wdbtlFnc/?igshid=15cncr9n9bqq3

Wactapunakuy ch'uru - Shells back to back. I think this one weaves even easier and faster than last night's variation on three-pairs. #KeepWeaving #KeepLearning #StudentWeaver #AndeanBackstrap #MemorizedPatterns alt-txt: narrow band in light and dark blue patterns framed in maroon and bright red selvedge stripes. Patterns repeat a center O or box with diagonal tails from both top and bottom, alternating dark and light blues. https://www.instagram.com/p/CZLzuIZrHNv/?utm_medium=tumblr

Lifetime band #48: Three-pairs Sikipunakuy-ch'uru (aka siki-siki) also four-selvedge (2nd ever), commercial cone wool 2-ply with added twist (not handspun), red and white "shells one behind the other" with olive green listas and mint "kids these days" border edge lista and weft (mini). Honestly? These are my "Christmas peppermint butts" 🤣🍬🧑🎄 #StudentWeaver #KeepLearning #KeepWeavung #MemorizedPatterns #AndeanBackstrap https://www.instagram.com/p/CZJICtZr80d/?utm_medium=tumblr

FINALLY cracked the floral design for ley pallay (supplemental warp) technique, here on 11-pairs. Now to weave it over and over again, on both sides (left and right). #LeyPallay #SupplementalWarp #AndeanBackstrap #KeepLearning #StudentWeaver all-txt: collage labeled front (left) and back (right). Half a flower motif emerging from the selvedge is built from four diamond shapes as flower petals. The front shows purple diamond petals on grey, the back elements are reversed (grey where the front is purple). https://www.instagram.com/p/CUbjgSqlwcH/?utm_medium=tumblr

What I am currently studying: Two bags I own, which means I can count threads, move them around, making conclusions based on the textile, and one book which these pictures I am studying. Some of what I see, I can now weave. Some? COMPLETELY STUMPING ME, and there's even something odd about the larger bag I own, where when I expect two threads, I only see one. And who does that?!?! #LeyPallay #KeepLearning #StudentWeaver #AndeanBackstrap alt-txt: collage of three pictures. Left column, a diamond motif in black on cream with center pattern threads in orange and green. Each diamond has a center flower motif made of diamond shaped petals. Right top: two bands in a book. Top burgundy on grey with black dots, diagonals similar to the large diamond on left, and half floral motifs from the selvedges. Bottom right: black on cream with black dots, arrow Vs and diamonds making also a simple snowflake motif. https://www.instagram.com/p/CUPsZxMFZJe/?utm_medium=tumblr

More experiments with ley pallay (supplementary warp) on 11-pairs. #KeepLearning #StudentWeaver #LeyPallay #NoCharts #AndeanBackstrap alt-txt: Woven band with diagonal lines across the center of the band, in repeating ladders of diagonal lines with perpendicular intersections, creating diamond shaped in the voids. Three motifs of ladders leaning to the right, a triangle where the direction shifts, and three ladders leaning to the left. Burgundy patterns on grey, with coral red outer edge stripes. https://www.instagram.com/p/CUKtOoqlUGi/?utm_medium=tumblr

Exploring ley pallay (supplementary warp) on 11-pairs, trying out some motifs in my book and in some woven purses I purchased. Not all my choices look "right" but I have to test what works and what doesn't. #KeepLearning #StudentWeaver #LeyPallay #NoCharts #AndeanBackstrap alt-txt: collage of two photos labeled Front (left) and Back (right). Various diagonal lines across the center of the band, and ladders of diagonal lines with perpendicular intersections, creating diamond shaped in the voids. Burgundy patterns on grey, with coral red outer edge stripes. https://www.instagram.com/p/CUJwrIpLA1h/?utm_medium=tumblr

Seven pairs, Lifetime band #46, ley pallay #4. LOTS of unweaving/reweaving to get this one right, lessons learned. These weave VERY fast. #KeepLearning #StudentWeaver #LeyPallay #AndeanBackstrap alt-txt: collage of 3 pictures - left, full band looped over once to show whole piece, 68cm/27in long and 3cm/1.12in wide, top right close-up of red XOs on white, lower right strap wrapped around my hand and showing the braided ends https://www.instagram.com/p/CUEHZGpFbOL/?utm_medium=tumblr

Another woven band done: Lifetime band #45 (which is also ley pallay #3). I liked the X and diamond look (in red on white), even though my weaving instructor suggested the Os in red should be woven larger. Next band, we'll see what I weave. #KeepLearning #StudentWeaver #LeyPallay #AndeanBackstrap #MemorizedSkills #NoCharts alt-txt: collage of three photos. Across top, a folded length of a woven narrow band, 60cm by 1.5cm (about .5in x 24in) and the bottom two pictures are close ups of the patterns. The borders are dark purple narrow strips next to a thinner orange stripe, the outside edges have grey dots where the weft shows, and the center patterned areas alternate raised red floats and flat white with grey dots areas. On one side, red Xs alternate with red diamonds. On the other side, red and white reverse places. https://www.instagram.com/p/CT3C-LiPqpw/?utm_medium=tumblr

Yup, I remember how to weave ley pallay again (supplementary warp). #KeepLearning #LeyPallay #AndeanBackstrap #StudentWeaver alt-txt: almost 8cm (7 in) woven band in red/white Xs and Os with diamond centers and dark purple borders... Front and back images are in mirror colors https://www.instagram.com/p/CTynUojLWwA/?utm_medium=tumblr
