shibori cotton blankets

Warp:  8/2 cotton (85” warp)

4 EPI (90 ends)

Weft:  Shibori hand-dyed cotton rope (3 skeins in color Lagoon)

Finished size: 18” x 47”

Doubleweave version:
Warp: 8/2 cotton (95” warp)
4 EPI (90 ends x 2 = 180 ends)
Weft: Shibori hand-dyed cotton rope (6 skeins in color Thistle)
Finished size: 37.5” x 50.5”

Note: I double-sleyed each end to create stronger selvedges; unfortunately, when I did this to the doubleweave version, it created a heavier warp line at the fabric’s middle fold. In the future, do not add any additional warp threads at the selvedge side where the fabric fold will be.
