The lower left side is a series of lines extending from the solid roots. I'd hoped these would seem to be drawn lines. They were done with twining, using grays of slightly different values. The background "white" is a mix of three--white, natural and a very light creamy tan. It almost looks like a light color oatmeal.
The lower hem area is a single gray and narrower than the top hem.
I'm going to weave in every other warp, like Pat W. and Marti F. do. The warp is a #12/18 Finnish cotton seine twine and pretty hefty.
The left side looks to me very much like drawn lines, in fact so much so that initially i thought it was paper and drawing placed over the tapestry. Kt, signing off for now.
