the language of textiles

love how two twills talk among themselves, one goes to the right, another seems to float over it in a point moving towards the left. something only a textilian would enjoy.

this second warp is coming to an end this week.however this week is kind of funky.there's an institution here called the bridge.it's a long weekend or a two day holiday that like a bridge it covers a span of space-time and you end up with a 4-5 day holiday. we just had one, still today it's technically a holiday.there is another big one coming up in a couple of weeks then all of a sudden it's xmas.

back to textiles. love how the stamping seems to recede and make itself prominent according to the  weave structure.the final part is a tabby which will receive a transfer,this time on the already woven surface.

already planning how to use all the dyed silks.

practicing my name kanjis bcse i want to have a hanko seal made. this is just the preliminaries, need to practice the ne part.using their pronunciation to derive the name which in turn by combining both will have meaning. isn't that so very cool?

on the nihongo front i'm doing about 30 mins daily of self study , we've just been reading in class and i've just been skipping class.¯\ ( ツ ) /¯ i need more speaking that reading and there's an online teacher who excels in  speaking practice.

on a tex related note , attention to the left hand side of the paper, a balinese double ikat.
