spoiled beyond repair

the warp is behaving so incredibly well that i can get used to that, especially after the last warp from hell. the added problem with warps from hell is that they take so long to weave i get bored. 3 meters of fabric woven at a pace of a couple of centimeters per session and just to think of it i'm already bored.this new baby progresses at a very nice pace.

spoiler nº 2. my garter bar.i adore it.

look how easy it is to crochet the edging,  beats having 12 fingers i can tell you that.

i am sampling  a linen yarn on the knitting machine  a very apt excuse to get practice.

using punch cards nº 5 in a skip stitch,

nº 2 in a tuck stitch 

 nº 16 in a lace pattern



all with my brother kh 890.
too bad brother stopped production because they are good sturdy numbers.if you happen to see a second hand one in good condition grab it without second thoughts.

and there's no 3 without 4. have been trying to get rid of those awful share icons in my photoblog.
blogger dynamic views incorporate them and they are a pain to delete. yesterday i found the only tutorial that worked for me. if you are using a dynamic view template go here .
you're welcome ;-)
