All Dressed Up And Ready To Go

Last year, around September, it was on, then off.  After a long wait, I was suprised to hear it would be on again; then a couple weeks later,(due to heavy rains), off again.  Due to scheduling, it probably wouldn’t be on again until after February.  Then, at the last minute, I hear it’s really on again.  Tomorrow.  I’m speaking of the weaving class to be taught by Syne Mitchell. 

Over the past couple of days, I’ve been frantically preparing my portable loom for a double weave project.

The yarns and a cartoon I”m using for part of the double weave design:

I also tablet-wove a strap to make it easier to tote the loom.

Finally, I warped my Harrisville Designs Easy Weaver “B” loom (first-time warped) with Lion Brand Fisherman’s Wool.  If there’s time, I want to do some pick up from plain weave for a shibori design.  I plan to dye the scarf in different colours, then overdye after pleating the fabric for the shibori effect.

Class starts in less than 12 hours.  Wish me luck?
