Let there be light
I’ve been complaining about the dark – and earlier this year too. Probably some other posts as well that fortunately I can’t remember. Then I complained about the sun!
Yarn prize
Last month I won a little raffle we’re having in the Ravelry tapestry group. Not that I’ve been able to work on my diary, but apparently I’m still in. The prize was a gift certificate for Webs, which of course, being in the US, makes it difficult for me to shop because of postage and the threat of import taxes. So I blinded myself to all the lovely stuff at www.yarn.com and just picked ONE skein of something I don’t see here as well as weaving bobbins in a size I haven’t been able to find for my largest boat shuttle.
The last colour – DSLR edition
In all fairness I suppose a lowly Android in heavy overcast weather will never compete with a real camera on a sunny day, but nevertheless, as I was on my usual dogwalk anyway…
Winter cloth
Once threading and sleying is done in many separate sessions to reduce the risk of headaches, weaving itself is mostly a breeze. This fabric has an unexpected design feature in the weft sequences, which I didn’t notice when making the draft, but I’m going ahead with it as is, since it’s not likely to fall apart. 😉
Serves me right for being too smart for my pants and not checking authorized pattern sources.
