creative thoughts

i don't want to buy more equipment nor i have space for more so i really need to optimise everything i own. good brain exercise!
the cone holder moved under the k-machine and the combination of gate pegs and knitting carriage
gives enough tug so that the 18 turn x inch wool warps smoothly without kinks.

using all to it's full capacity and then some more
could qualify as zero waste.mottainai

here and there and everywhere

still weaving the blue ai warp with the kakishubu weft.already started making chains for the next warp,fine botany wool with a cashmere weft.

since i still haven't worked on the dyeing set up and i am really dying to dye this white warp is going to be painted and batch set. the set up is considerably easier and who am i kidding, i just want to go to the nearby brook for the rinsing (＾∇＾) oh the joy of living amongst nature.

know the colors ,have the warp color now i need to decide on a structure. can't be too complex as i will be working on the table loom because of it's width. lifting a networked twill by hand is beyond me right now.

on the blogger side i am slowly incorporating my blog roll after blogger effaced the widget.

quite a shock as many of my all time faves have disappeared. guess instant grat. prevails.

and gee i still have to work on my 24 gigas + the phone worth of photos from the trip. ಠ ಠ

i was a lot less reckless when i  shot analog.
