Weave week one..

This first week of weave for my self initiated brief was the most important starting point, began the week by getting my warp onto the loom and choosing a define colour pallet in a variety of different types of yarn to weave into the weft of my samples. I had to programme in the number of structures that I wanted to create for my samples this week so that I was organised and knew what I was doing. 
I eventually managed to get two samples done, for the two samples below, I used three different shades of  brown 2/16s cotton, four different shades of green 2/16s cotton, a cream and grey mohair, and a cream, brown and muddy green woollen yarn all for the weft. This week I focused on two structures they were a plain weave structure and a structure that leaves a little float on the top of the surface called M's and O's, I had never tried this pattern before and was a comfortable starting point to try something knew.
