Getting ready to weave a plaid blanket - or two or three - from left-over wool that came from the Wortzels, the original owners of my loom, a gorgeous cherry-wood Norwood. I love working the wool, winding the warp, round and round, 240 ends, 6 ends per inch, 10 yards long - the wool tickles my fingers and the colors delight my eye and my soul. Next, the ends will be threaded through the reed, then through the heddles, tied on and wound, then the fun begins - the actual weaving. I love the rhythm, the order, the mechanics, and of course, the finished product. Stay tuned!
