No Sew Saori Hat II (the sequel)


The two photos are the yardage I wove for the second No Sew Saori Hat. There was enough warp left after weaving the first one to make a second one.   I thought I would be short on fringe, but there was plenty.  I was having such fun that I wove an extra 3 inches.  I did make it about two inches narrower by removing 12 warp threads from each side.  

One of the sections on the right has clasped weft with a gray color.  I picked up black thread from the left and came two thirds of the way across.  Then I came back across and picked up teal. 

The fuzzy section in the center is a variegated boucle wool. I pulled loops through the warp every two or three inches for several rows.  The teal thread sandwiched between the orange twill is done in satin (1, 2, 3, 4).  On the left is gray and teal alternated using tatami (basket weave).  Similarly, the teal and orange follows in the same manner.  


The section to the left of the variegated wool is green and teal wound together and woven in reverse satin (4, 3, 2, 1).  The section to the left of the pink is green and teal alternating with green and black in tatami (basket weave).   There is a green and teal section to the right of the variegated wool that is twill, revise twill and twill.  It makes a chevron pattern.
