One Bite
Again, not quite accurate to life…the orange is much brighter, more like the orange in the shuttle. This is, in the count down from #18, warp #10. When I finish weaving this warp I will be half way through the shawl warps. And that much closer to recovery. The exercises the physio gave me are…

Pretty in Pink
The warp on the loom is actually a darker magenta. I have three shades of magenta to use as weft; this is the darkest of the three. The other two will look more like this does in the photo. In the background are more warps waiting their turn. There is just one more warp to…

Deep Purple Haze
Silly me – I miscounted how many warps there are (or are going to be – I still haven’t finished winding them all) and there are only 18, not 20. I’m actually happy about that. I’d decided that, in the spirit of recovery, I would weave all of these warps before I tried something a…

All About the Therapy
Two shots of the same shawl. The top photo was taken with the ordinary flash, the bottom using the ‘red-eye’ feature of the flash. The bottom photo is much closer to real life than the top photo. I discovered by accident that using the red-eye feature gets me better representation of reds, especially. This shawl…

Cornucopia
Even after loading about 3 dozen bobbins with yarn, this very red linen cone still has 2 pounds 3 ounces for weight. The cone is plastic so probably no more than an ounce of weight for that, so essentially there is still a kilo of yarn left… There is enough of the 2/16 red cotton…

Same Old, Same Old
Well, here I am, still working on this Blooming Leaf tea towel warp. Just when I was starting to recover from the latest health ‘crisis’, I caught a cold. Between starting slowly, and then having zero energy today, weaving has been progressing – but at a snail’s pace. However, I think I’m down to the…

A Sunny Day
at last! I got up this morning determined to deal with the critical deadlines and by dint of fierce focus, managed to get everything done – except for one thing and that was because the website I needed wasn’t up due to maintenance. Oh well. I did my part! But I’m getting mighty fed up…

Meg has started a tradition of posting photos of one’s looms on the first day of the new year. The AVL has the tatters of the very red Swedish Snowflake table runner warp left on it. I quite often don’t bother stripping the dregs of the old off until I’m ready to put the next…
