I've wanted to try weaving with a fine yarn. Over a year ago I bought some 60/2 silk from RedFish. I chose a pattern, did the math, cut the warp...and life happened. So, I'm finally back to it. The thing is, I couldn't find my worksheet, and what pattern I'd chosen. Rewind. I was surprised that it wasn't terribly difficult to dress Sophie with such fine yarn. It's like thread. I decided to use a snowflake pattern.
The rug he's on is a handwoven rug we bought in Jordan.
This is from Twill Thrills. For whatever reason I couldn't keep my place. I ended up using a stitch marker and sliding it along! |

60/2 silk? Wow, you're a patient woman!! I bet it will feel just lovely with that fine yarn. You just can't beat hand knit socks for fit and for comfort. Happy holidays to you and your family.
