Weavers often think of gamps mainly as study projects, a way to experiment with pattern and color. Often we combine the two to produce gamps that are wild in every way. Twill is made for gamps because it offers so many possible threadings and treadlings with just a few shafts. Create a cozy gamp that is more than just a study project. Weave a throw with the two stunning colors that will also be a sophisticated accent for your home.
