chugging along. the weave is open, but it will -hopefully- collapse as it's an unmercerised cotton weft on a high twist cotton warp.it's a 2/2 twill and the real thang will be achieved, again hopefully, in the dyeing.

spring is a season of hope and promises!

the draft. no rocket science because i'm weaving it on my table loom hence doing the lifts by hand.

i am being taxed more than enough with the other warp which is as mentioned yesterday still in the beaming process. i'm sure you do not want to know why.  if the warp yarn behaves as expected the longish floats where the diamonds flip will create some cool texture.

answered prayers

this yarn finally became the one above.after just two days of sun dyeing. very hot sun and the final trick: more dye liquor :D

spring is indeed a season of hope and promises!

i knew it

it was just a matter of time i was going to get hit. a few weeks ago while checking my analytics i saw a some visits from turkey and nigeria. first it happened in my e mail server. the infamous  GOOD MORNING MY FRIEND post and the newer version DEAR BELOVED IN GOD. no problem, just trash it and on with life, have been trashing lots of them .but this morning i got a comment here at the blog duplicating aracne's  comment from a few days ago. when i clicked on it i was taken to a weird page in turkey all written in turkish of course. i left the page as fast as i could, but now i'm paranoid. maybe i got something there because i'm experiencing difficulties commenting on blogs.

on the textile life department:

• the loom controlled shibori is coming along nicely. no photos because it's all white boringness.

• still winding on the silk top, a few inches per hour to avoid havoc, broken threads raw nerves etc.that silk is inflicting punishment.

• the silk skein being solar dyed  in brazilwood  i salso coming along nicely.

• and.... preparing an ai vat. my face is blue  from holding my breath.hope it turns as blue.
