Don't be disappointed when you first cut it off the loom, mine comes off looking like airy board and after a quick soak is transformed into something totally different.
Very pretty abd remember that once you've wrestled the octopus you're half way done.
Very pretty -- and it looks like it will be very soft. Ditto to what Caroline said -- until you've finished the fabric by washing, steaming or whatever, you don't really know what you have. It's a lot like knitting a fine lace shawl, finishing/blocking makes all the difference in the world!
Oooooooohhhhhhhh, Jo! What a Beauty! Are you just loving the weaving? The colours, the fibre, all breathtaking. Huh? 'people always say you can't put handspun on as a warp'? huh. I've certainly seen different :^) XOXOXOXOX

Nice! I love the colors!
Doesn't it make you wonder why people always say you can't put handspun on as a warp?
: )
Lovely looking piece of work.
I look forward to seeing the finished item.
