\"ribbon<\/a><\/p>\n

As I was unwinding the yarn to take it off the loom, it fell into these soft rolls that made me think of ribbon candy. As a kid I was entranced by it, probably because we never had any at our house. As an adult, I’ve never tasted any that I thought was worth it. Looks pretty, tastes….like sugar.<\/p>\n

After I got the entire length of the warp unwound and bunched up to take to the garbage, it sure looked like a big mess. Which, of course, is what it felt like. And what it was.<\/p>\n

\"ready<\/a><\/p>\n

That felt simultaneously cathartic (getting rid of a warp that was nothing but trouble) and depressing (wasting all that time and material). I needed to do something that felt good, and was productive. So I hauled my warping mill out to the porch. The bad fortune of KC & CW is the good fortune of EC & EH. K & C will be getting their wraps later than planned, and E & E will be getting their sooner. <\/p>\n

Actually, none of it is actually sooner.<\/em> I’ve been really busy in June at my paycheck job, so not getting as much woven as I’d like. I’ve got one more crazy busy week. Or maybe two. Then I think I can get back in the weaving groove.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I did get E&E’s warp completely measured while the mill was on my front porch. The colors are a nice progression.<\/p>\n

Charcoal to medium gray
\n\"E&E,<\/a><\/p>\n

Medium gray to light gray to turquoise
\n\"E&E,<\/a> <\/p>\n

Turquoise to peacock
\n\"E&E,<\/a><\/p>\n

Peacock to jeans
\n\"E&E,<\/a><\/p>\n

I finished winding late Friday afternoon, then did a bit of house cleaning. Left early Saturday morning to play Grandma while Mama & Papa took some time off. I’ll be back home late Sunday morning and will get the warp spread & beamed. WITHOUT twisting any of those bouts!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n
