My fabric is the one in the top row in the middle. It's a viscose warp with ribbon figuring threads over the top. I remember it was very hot the day I warped that one up, but it was a dream to weave.

As featured in Trend Bible
Cool! Just found out that one of my degree weaves is featured in Trend Bible's Autumn Winter 2011/12 interiors trendbook (www.trendbible.co.uk). The section is called 'Perfected'... it's nice to know someone spotted all the toil that went into the warp ; )

Woven cashmere/ribbon jacket
This is a pic styled by and starring the very lovely Glasgow-based stylist and model Sam Morrison. She's wearing my jacket, the fabric of which I wove when I was in third year at GSA. The fabric's warp is 2/60s ruby red silk, with figuring threads of silver lurex ribbon. The weft is soft, fine cashmere. The structure is plain old plain weave - sometimes the simplest of structures give the best results. Thanks Sam!
