still waiting

for the needle retaining sponge bar for the k machine. however, the frugal weaver had saved a 10/2 cotton warp waiting for better times and the time is now.

it all came together with the arrival of the latest complex weavers journal and  a very exciting article on 3 layer weaving actually 3d weaving. having tried some 3 layer weaving ages ago but not having achieved a total grasp of it, i decided to give it a try.

warped 2 colors for the two other layers for an easy short experimental warp. 

look at those two colors  nicely  separated at the cross.

another big achievement after trying numerous tomes to warp using a paddle with scant luck.

 another chapter in self study without either sufficient or unclear instruction lines. ಠ ಠ

eventually one gets there, but the time spent is disheartening.

feeling totally validated as the other day on insta one of the big girls was warping using  k machine weights.

turning a page. waiting has also brought me back to studying japanese at home  again.

watching some vids and doing the grammar exercises. listening comp courtesy of the doramas i'm watching. win-win!
