The Ripple Effect


I keep gradually letting the weave get looser until I suddenly notice that my centers aren't right up against each other anymore and then I tighten up.   It seems to be related to how close or far my heddle is from the working area, but maybe that's a false correlation?  

There are ripples in my woven band, but I hope they will not be super noticeable when it is in use.  I'm more consistent now, but still have to pay close attention.  I seem to be able to weave for about 40 minutes before I start losing focus and screwing up.  That's a great improvement over when I started, when 10 minutes was all I could do.  It's also kind of fun now, rather than a strain.
