Further Explorations in Warp Left Unwoven

Although I am definitely not done with putting sprang into my loom-controlled weaving, I have been wanting for some time to try out some other techniques besides sprang on the portions of my warp that I leave unwoven.

In this project I am using my familiar 10/2 cotton, in one of my doubleweave (triple weave?) layered fabric structures similar to several I've done before.  However, this time in the treatment of the top layer of unwoven warps, I'm trying some wrapping and knotting.

The photo is of a corner of the piece, still in progress on the loom.
