Technique: Double-faced double-weave, front image (ABOVE) (back image is different, SEE BELOW).
Yarns: 2/8 cotton weft, doubled for both front and back (woven with 4 shuttles: one brown, one black and two off-white).
Sample notes: The weft threads were doubled for each side because the first sample with a single weft thread resulted in incorrect proportions - e.g. the image was squished and needed more height. This sample is still not the correct proportions and a third sample will be attempted with triple the weft threads, or three wefts per side for each pick. The wefts on the front image (shown) were a combination of black and dark brown to give a slightly softer contrast and show some texture in the hair.
