A last minute change of mind and I've created a "moiré weave" on 8 shafts (below). This type of weave is effectively two twills which create interference patterns, its usually done on 16 or more shafts but I think my version will work and create wave like ripples of colour across the fabric. A fine 16/2 warp and a much thicker wool weft which will give the fabric some texture and hopefully fluff out the ripples into more distinct blocks of colour....we will see!
