Official!
It’s official. The webinar is written, tweaked, proof read (thanks Cindy!) and the technology tested. Thankfully, the technology is fairly intuitive and I didn’t have any problems downloading the program or understanding how to use the control panel. The headphones (thanks Allan!) worked beautifully and Laura Esposito from Interweave said the sound quality was good.…

Out On A Limb
Antheraea polyphemus, a.k.a., a “giant silk moth.“ I am going to go out on a limb here and give a little more information about the webinar I am scheduled to do for Weaving Today later in August. The topic is A Good Yarn and it will present information on fibre and yarn characteristics. It is…

Birthday Bash Special
Debi mentioned in a comment that she wasn’t sure she liked the selling part. Well, I don’t much like it either but I learned a long time ago that until the product is sold, the job isn’t finished. Doesn’t make a bit of difference if you are building the very best mousetrap in the universe…

Soapbox Rant
I did several things in high school that have stood me in good stead as an adult. Law 11, was one. Office Practices (where I learned how to do double entry bookkeeping) was another. And interestingly, English 12 where I learned how to read for editorial slant. Editorial slant doesn’t just apply to editorials in…

Change of Pace
With dwindling inventory of the colours that most appeal to me it was time for a change of pace. Decided to do a more ‘neutral’ warp instead of the pastels or mid-range values I’d been playing with for the past couple of weeks. So here is the warp (or half of it). Kahki, a dusky…

Working From the Stash
I’ve been trying really hard to work only from my stash and not buy more yarn. Unfortunately I am running out of the colours I want to use! It isn’t that I don’t have yarn – they just aren’t the right colours. 🙁 But I wound this warp today and have a blue/pink one ready…
