A Not-Quite-Invisible Crepe

I've made good on my threat to weave the last piece on the blue wool warp with one of the smooth yarns I used in the warp. This one is a 2/32 from Zegna Baruffa, a lovely teal blue, probably merino judging from the softness of the yarn and the relatively short staple of the fibers in it.

The draft is one I used earlier in the warp (to no particular visual effect):

With a smooth weft yarn, I can almost see the weave...


Almost... I can't wait to see how the cloth looks after wet finishing!
