doo wop doo wop

Finishing this afternoon the 1200 thread tying ordeal. It wasn't the number of threads, but trying to keep the color sequence right as it was double width. Promise not to talk about tying on-ever again
For all who shared the boredom with me, let's do the Watusi!

visual pun

Natural dyes with a street and parked motorcycles as background.Get it?
The silk skein was alum mordanted and put into a diluted pomegranate solution and the photo was taken after 24 hours.i have visions of shiboried scarves floating in the liquid.Just a matter of time.

The warp hasn't made significant progress,i managed to tie about 100 threads yesterday.My cop out for yesterday was a long due visit to the hair salon for a desperately needed haircut.Do not tell me it isn't an impeccable excuse :)
