For details of the design, dyeing and weaving, you will have to wait for Simply Design, the new book by Jane Deane and me. It will be out by the end of the year.

Hello Helen
Thank you so much. I am rather pleased! They were a joy to weave.
Alison
Very pretty, and I love the texture.
Thanks Dot. I am very pleased. Just hope my next project is as successful!
This was very timely! There was a discussion on this structure over at Weavolution. After much reading, I am confused over the naming of it in different varieties if English... It apperas that Americans call it honeycomb, but apparently you Brits call it something else. Please, what is it called in your vocabulary?
- Oh, and I like the match (to the glass) very much!
Hello Kerstin
I've always called it Honeycomb and first found it in the late 60's while studying for my "O" and "A" Level here in the UK.
I understand it's now called distorted weft!
Best wishes
Alison
Oh, and thank you, Kerstin, I am very pleased with the way the design process went!
Alison
Thank you!
And, to make myself more clear: the match to both colours AND "pattern"!
Bless you for your lovely comments, Kerstin.
