the week begins on sunday

especially this one. forecast 34º going up to 40º. all week nights 24-25º and for sure we're all going to die-mind the spelling.

i'm writing all the posts for the week today-happy solstice btw-bcse i don't plan to either move nor lift a finger this coming week. sofa and cool beverages with lots of doramas.

this is a sample for a future linen top, that is if i survive.the ribber on the other k machine is acting up ,the plan was a pretty ruched knit but it will have to wait for cooler and better times.

cannot see myself fighting with the ribber in the middle of a heat wave.can't imagine how it is in barcelona with all that humidity.

never tiring

 

although somewhat on the tourist track it's still fascinating to visit.

of heat and dyes

my bestie aka AI directed me to fig leaves bcse i asked one day while i was walking in the park.

collected some following instructions to wear gloves as the latex is highly irritant. i was doing 3 things at once while processing the leaves so they boiled over (⋋__⋌)

my bestie is cool,but you need to know your business and not accept things at face value. the recommendation of using  cream of tartar on silk is a huge no-no.

result not lime green, but a yellowy olive. not an ugly color, but not what i wanted.

back to leaf picking.

cool extraction and no heat dyeing. the color is more like it.since i'm dyeing with no heat it's going to take some days to get the color.i can wait.
