Last Friday I started weaving a bit of overshot. Love the structure and challenge, hated the string of Friday tour groups.
The warp and plain weave weft are dyed with rose hips, and the pattern weft is natural Harrisville wool.
I also took a trip out to Gemini Fibres, a charming fibre arts shop packed to the gunwales with books and spinning wheels and soft things, to (in theory) window shop, but... my strict budgeting regimen goes out the window when I see hand-turned wooden earrings and silk carrier rods. I managed to walk out only 9$ poorer.
You'll eventually see photos of what those junky little silk bits are being turned into. Right now content yourself with knowing that it'll be neat.

Just started overshot with Kar and Ang. It is amazing how much you realize that you don;t know when you start to give indepth explination as to what is happening in something as convoluted as overshot.
