more woven bookmarks

Here are the bookmarks. It was interesting to experiment with combinations of yarns in the weft—almost like mixing paint colors. The warp is cotton/linen and the wefts are cottons, rayons, and a fun novelty "eyelash."
I wove them, one by one, on my Schacht "Baby Wolf" loom.

small and simple...

I have another group of woven bookmarks ready to take to the VAAM gallery tomorrow. It's so interesting to experiment with different yarns, colors, weights, textures. I've also been making simple cards. I think I will stay with all things small and simple for awhile now. Photos coming tomorrow.
