Coverage

Coverage of beige cotton yarn and red two-toed wool yarn. Solved double weave with pattern inplot. Woven in two floors together on the middle with longitudinal stitch. The pattern consists of a red bottom with 5 x 5.5 cm large squares, which in turn consists of 16 beige small squares in a red grid. A stretcher with squares in another format is framed by tuskafstrder where each other thread is red, each other beige. The pattern inspired by the pattern of linger (?). Ultimately along the long sides 3.5 cm long turnip of red wool yarn. The Cream Fruit Knotted with Cotton Yarn as a Coordinating Wire. Along the short sides, the red wool warp has probably existed. Three lags (stops). Some small holes. Ev lashes along the short sides are apart, even the lashes along the long sides are worn. Bleached. Some brown spots. The textiles UM026360 and UM026361 have been on the estate Gilltorp, Jörlanda. Dit moved Olof Petter Andersson, f 1840 d 11/11 1914 to take up employment as a drone. He was born in Hammar, a member of Solberga (now Kode). He then married Sara Jonsdotter f 1849 d 11/11 1921 who was a daughter on the estate. Farm archives remain in the property of the relatives. Olle Petter Andersson was the great-grandfather of the donor. Tree tree over Gilltorpska genera, see appendix in a pearl in the magazine. The cover was on a bed along with a number of other textiles that the donor’s grandfather had standing in his part of the home and that were high in the old way. Arne Gadd has made drawings at the City Museum in Gothenburg showing the appearance of Gilltorp. The drawing is also in his book “Coast in the West.” In the early 1990s, a process was made of the cover’s pattern in the face of the production of postcards with a description of weaving on some of the museum’s textiles. Pads with inspiration from the cover were woven by Mari-Anne Askenström and sold in the museum’s store.
