Welcome to our newest weaver, Gina!
She has bought two looms, and she's ready to learn to use them! She is also looking for a spinning wheel....yes....spinning is on her list of things she wants to learn! This should be fun!
She got her warp wound this morning, and then it was time to wind it on the loom.
Marilyn had a "new weaver moment" when she got ready to tie on her warp. Yes, it passed quickly.
She's all tied on and ready to weave!
Shirley and Bonnie make a great team!
Together they got Bonnie's new scarf warp wound on smoothly, and next week she can start threading.
It's always exciting to see a new project taking shape.
Pat was super busy today!
Not only did she weave on her rug warp (she finished up one rug and started another one) but she also sorted some items that needed a home.
Lou Ann is back from her beach vacation and ready to finish her placemat warp.
There doesn't seem to be a lot of warp left on the back beam!
Ta-da!
Tied on!
Checked for missed threads!
Next week she'll be weaving!!!! Linda is going to have fun with this dish towel pattern!
Time for lunch in the driveway!
It did get a little cool when it got cloudy, but that didn't stop the fun.
You can always bet that Tina and Pearl will bring their knitting! No idle hands around here!
Earlier, Tina brought tubs of wool from Carl's stash to share with the weavers. Liz is going to try some tapestry, so this wool will come in handy.
Patty and Tina have been busy at home, too! Patty wove a merino and silk striped scarf. She used black for the weft to tone down the bright colors.
Tina is working through her Jacob fleeces, and spun this skein of yarn. You can see the knitted sample from the yarn on the left.
Busy ladies!!!!
Stay safe my fiber friends! Wear those masks! Keep your distance!!!!
Happy Weaving!
LouAnn
