A LITTLE PROGRESS
After I finished the red and black Twill Block scarf I was dying to start a semi lace project. I found exactly what I was looking for in the same issue of Handwaoven as the Twill Block Scarf. The magazine called for Aunt Lydia’s Crochet Bamboo, but I didn’t have any in so stash. So instead I decided to use the black bamboo I purchased from Herritage Spinning and Weaving last year.
I warped a modified draft that removed the extra lace strips on either side and added a few extra inches to the center lace strip. Unfortunately after I got the reed sleyed, the heddles threaded, the warp wound and tied on, and the border woven I discovered that I had made several threading mistakes. Luckily I was able to do a bit of finagling and I got it worked out without having to re-thread the entire project. Yeah for me!!
I am really enjoying the process, and despite Harley trying to get my attention,
he crawled between me and the loom and just sat there. I was able to get a few inches done, and I’m loving it!!!
