A Little Help from my Friends
Today, in between dealing with Life, unpacking, sorting, beginning to re-pack (for Victoria and ANWG), get ready for Mary’s one day workshop The Empress’ Tea Cup (silk, silk and more silk) we wound up with a few minutes in which we could retreat from the madding crowd. Mary sorted through the 2/8 cotton, getting colours…

Crunchy
The above is a close up of wool fibre. The scales are very apparent seen this close up. Thinking about teaching the upcoming class while I dress the loom once again. I like to leave a warp ready to go so that I can just jump on the loom as soon as I get home.…

Passionate
Me, probably off on a tangent… So what are the odds of everything going smoothly when I travel to teach? 50-50. Either they will…or they won’t.

Packing
This trip is a little different from my usual. Olds College puts teachers up in their student condos which have kitchens…but no dishes. Since three of my roommates are flying in and I’m driving, I am also bringing cups, cutlery, coffee and tea makings. I will be adding extra blankets because the beds only come…

Stocking Up
This is warp #8 in the series of towel warps I’ve been winding. I’m struggling to finish the warp on the AVL – but need to get it off soon so I can weave other things. I’m struggling to use up stash. But that means buying more yarn to use up the yarn that…
