the english cut says it's here

the puzzle

mattie's new clothes

english cut spring

those of you who know spain also know that our seasons are dictated by the local  department store.

when their ads say spring is here it better be here. 

 as a homecoming gift  these 3 color palettes developed from my photos via colourlovers. you can download the ps aco files here and work with them. have fun!

sneak peek

finished another nettle diaries book. this will have to suffice for now as it is a surprise for a visiting  friend. i'm pleased with the outcome and hope she likes it.
finally weaving! more of that tomorrow.
for now a good read on the never ending natural vs. synthetic debate.

revelations

threading back to front is a lot less stressful than the opposite. all the yarns are perfectly smooth and under control and twisted threads are almost eliminated because you can see them coming. threading  goes very fast because it is also more comfortable do work, at least on this loom.

plus i developed a rig that is a lot better than masking tape. DUH so evident! i'll start weaving this afternoon if life doesn't get in the way.

other things i discovered:
awesome lace and lacemaker
soulful clothes
and for those of us on facebook this  could be a cause of concern.
