There’s a reason we don’t use Roman numerals anymore. It’s so much quicker and easier to say 49 & 50 than XLIX & L. Unless, of course, you’re running a super bowl. Then, Roman numerals are apparently a must. I’m sure if it wasn’t for super bowl, only 4th graders would have a clue what the Roman numerals mean. <\/p>\n

Then again, they probably don’t teach them in schools anymore. Heck, they’re not even teaching cursive writing anymore! But I’m not going to climb on my penmanship soapbox here.<\/p>\n

Anyway, yesterday & today I wound the warp for my 49th & 50th baby wraps. Seems like a milestone that should be acknowledged. PW & JJ are warp sisters for this. Like a few of my other wraps, these two moms don’t know each other; they’re joined by their love of their children and handwoven fabric. I love that!<\/p>\n

Here are their four bouts (bunches of warp threads) on the warping mill.<\/p>\n

PW designed this warp, and it looks great! I’m almost done beaming it (winding it on the back beam of the loom) in this shot.<\/p>\n

From left to right the warp colors are dark mauve, mauve, magenta, cream, turquoise, cobalt blue, medium blue, and navy. <\/p>\n

Tomorrow I’ll start threading. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
