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.
Being
“We can imagine a situation far back in time in which nothing in a person’s life could be singled out as one’s profession or line of work. If you had to grow or catch your own food, make your own clothes, dream up your own metaphors for the night sky, heal your own injuries, make your own love matches, concoct your own stimulants and sedatives, and in every way imaginable take care of yourself and amuse yourself, you had no profession or line of work. You were simply living; you were simply a human being.” (Eric Maisel)
The last colour
Autumn is fading and I’ve been trying to get to terms with my phone when out on walks to capture colour inspirations. Carrying a better camera is not always practical, but I must admit I was itching to haul these through Photoshop to try to save a bit of dignity!
