I've used this for many decades, ever since the book was released. It works well for me although I use other methods too.

What a nightmare! I'm so sorry for the devastation.

A great exercise -- apparently I have historically indulged in frivolities, as I already have everything I could think of (mostly exotic musical instruments and textile equipment). All that remains is a remote cabin with shoreline on the Rainy River....

Give your warp-sitter love from me. I miss my sassy loom cat.

Stayed up veeeerry late. Finished the first rug on a 20 yard warp, color-sorted a huge bag of wool selvedge, and started cutting a felted scrap wool blanket into 1/2" weft strips. I love working in the peaceful night.

My Ermagerd loved her bed, a fluffy little quilt made to cover the warp when I wasn't weaving.

Six, if you can afford them.

I'm so sorry, I know this experience and it's devastating. Love to you.

My grandson starts Army basic next week. Husband and I are both far Lefties who put in 28 years USAF. But these times scare me sick.

We march pretty much all the time here on the remote north coast of Cali, just drop-in style. I plan to be ready to hand out hats freely....

With most looms a fancy pattern requires attention but I've started rehabbing AVL manual dobby looms. The pattern design and threading still need close attention but once that's set up, 16 shaft towels flow mindlessly off the loom.

I just bought a skein of soft pink merino and got the pussy hat instructions out again last weekend.

I knit, weave, spin, embroider, quilt, and sew. I write, teach, garden, and raise chickens (Silkies, most recently). I'm a nurse, musician, and mother of three marvelous women. And I've been a Socialist since childhood, having been raised by a Swedish born far Left grandma.

His first win, I told my provider how anxious and depressed I was. She said I was imagining things, then she transferred me off her clinical service.

Yes. Besides the general panic, my 21 year old grandson leaves this week for army boot camp.
