After I finished Teri’s Rugs, I had enough warp at the 36″ width to finish four more for the galleries. I kind of like this width, and may return to it on the next warp. I am weaving now with selvages and wooly worms I bought at the Pendleton Woolen Mill Outlet store in Milwaukee, OR last September. Selvages are produced during the weaving process, and are available in three different weights. Blanket weight selvage is the heaviest, thickest type of selvage. Worsted weight selvage is the finest, lightest type of selvage. Flannel weight selvage falls between the two. The ones I bought last fall are mostly lighter than blanket weight and seem like they might have been selvages from shirting material. Wooly worms are the selvage edges of finished blankets. They are generally in the 5-6 foot range in length and are most often between 1/4 inch and 1/2 inches wide.
These were all woven July 15-17, the week the Carlton Complex fires started. We lost power on the 17th. The “R” numbers are my way of keeping track of all the rugs I have woven since I started doing this around 2007. So R178 is the 178th rug I have woven!
R178 – 36″ x 60″ – Pendleton selvages
R179 – 36″ x 65″ – Pendleton selvages – SOLD
R180 – 36 x 64 – alternating selvages with red wooly worms
R181 – 36 x 61 – alternating selvages with navy wooly worms

These are gorgeous Katie!! Good thing I’ve been working on the frugal lifestyle for the past year or all my cash would be coming your way. Just cleared out all my linen clothes from back before retirement and took them to Judith while visiting weaving camp to give her to rip up for rugs. Glad you are able to keep weaving without having to wear a wet bandana tied over your face.
