Carrot
Once again the colour isn’t ‘true’. The weft is actually somewhat deeper, a sort of grey blue with purplish hints. It looks almost silver here. Since mobility is going to be a bit compromised for the first while, I figured I’d better get this warp actually weaving with the auto cloth advance set and ready…

Math Impaired
All set up ready to thread – I sit on a small stool, using the tall weaving stool as a desk for my threading draft and pencil to keep track of where I am in the sequence. Unfortunately I’m a tad math impaired at the best of times, and right now? Well, not exactly the…

Counting Down the Days
With an estimate of ‘sometime in January’ for my surgery to happen, I’m starting to count down the days. As it is the 14th today, that means that I should hear from the surgeon’s office any time now and I’m beginning to look at what else I’d like to accomplish before I’m on weaving hiatus.…

Next Step
Next step in the process. (background is a commercially woven throw with spinning motifs woven in double weave) After the weaving comes the wet finishing. Doug spent much of Sunday and Monday pressing. The table toppers are done as are a stack of place mats and table runners. Still more mats to be run through…

Piling Up
Cut the table toppers off the loom this afternoon. There are five for my customer to choose from. From the far left, two 100% cotton woven in twill blocks, the rest are in plain weave – from the centre a cotton/linen blend weft, linen weft and 2/16 cotton weft. Not entirely happy with them –…

41″ x 24 epi = 984
Working on the AVL now that the loom parts have been installed. I’d intended to have this warp ready to weave on before the parts arrived but USPS and Canada Post conspired to deliver the box days before I expected it! This warp is the special order and today I made significant progress on threading –…
