The final step in the weaving process is “finishing” the piece. For me, it’s always gifting it or putting it to good use. But then, I usually have a use in mind when I’m creating something. In the case of the covers using leno technique, finishing was throwing in the wash and dryer. I didn’t want something fussy and wanted to see how the yarn/thread worked.

In this case, things softened up and after a pressing, look
quite nice. The holes created by the leno sections no longer are crisp, like
tatted rings, but rather gentle lacy areas.
The workshop warp is almost ready. Deadline for that is
looming, so I’d better get busy!
