Sketch in overshot linen III

R4,200

Here, an overshot pattern is woven in a patchwork of sorts – some squares with a darker blue linen, others with an ultramarine linen, with natural linen sandwiched between them. The natural linen on natural linen pattern almost disappears, but not quite, as it is a textural weave. 

Both blue linens are from leftover warps from previous projects. 

Woven on Janet, my 16 shaft table loom, as a part of the Overshot sketch series, 2023.  

Materials: linen warp, linen and cotton hand dyed wool weft

Dimensions of the textile: 30 x 56 cm (including fringe)

Dimensions of the frame: 40 x 66.5 cm
