LMRM's Warp Library: Vol. 5-4W

$30.00

LMRM's Warp Library: A compilation of scores and compositions by previous weavers Vol. 5-4W celebrates the creative warps designed and put on by LMRM throughout the year. Each volume showcases a 1:1 scale of the warp in an accordion booklet that unfolds to the exact length of the 4-wide TC2. We invited renters in each warp cycle to contribute a 40×60 pixel excerpt of the file they wove on LMRM’s TC2 4-Wide, which has 3,520 ends, 60 ends per inch.

This compilation of draft samples offers a rare insight into a major component of the weaver’s creative process. It’s a publication that nods to our ethos of sharing knowledge and ideas.
