New Weaving Project
Apart from all the animal stuff, I have found time to start weaving another scarf. This time I wound my own warp and threaded the loom all by myself, with the help of two girls at my spinning group in planning the initial thread count and a book called Learning to Weave by Deborah Chandler. The instructions were very clear and I felt like I really achieved something. I have only just started weaving but I'm pleased with it so far. The pattern is a twill and is also from a friend from spinning. Now I just have to force myself away from the computer and to the loom, which is just on the other side of the room.

How's the weaving going, Linda? Have you had a chance to do anymore, in amongst your busy life?
I think I could be about a third of the way, as I have wound on the warp about four times. I'm surprised at how much I can do in one sitting sometimes. I really do need to set aside more time, maybe I'll do that in the holidays ...
