lily pool

finished! still threading though. and after that adding heddles. fun-NOT!

   

details from lily pond. i'm really pleased with the way this series is turning out. creating something from technically discarded swatches. the silk bourette was  bundle dyed as an experiment using red  and orange onion skins, artichoke leaves and stems and purple cabbage which surprisingly gave the teals.

 in the life department two days ago i got a package from a friend. we exchanged goods(goodies) and as a result i'm going to be one stylish lady in a felt skirt (^_^) 

 and  here's a weekend gift for those with long hair,or kids or both: an adorable kid doing a demo on how to machine knit a scrunchie.

 have a great weekend!

this year

the freesias were heavenly. immune to pests and plagues.
i keep on threading while humming this.
although if you really think about the lyrics.......
they were great, however.

look at those warp ends! and i had no better idea than warp back to front. an activity i have engaged in few and sparse occasions. the good news is that it is relatively thick yarn and threading goes fast. i'm also stopping after each 24 end group and reeding the yarn, tough for a person who wins hands down the non controller championship.

and the dice fell on the woven shibori side. point draw ▲▼ ground in twill and the draw threads as well.

and true to murphy`s  law  the heddles arrived this morning.
