And something on the weaving front

My weaving is finally done!

No finished photos yet, I haven't washed it or anything.

My loom is now in pieces leaning against the lounge wall:

And the reason why:

My timing appears to be good though - the deconstruction happened yesterday, and today the EQC inspectors turned up. And now to wait for the next part of the process...

More dyeing photos

The new dyeing from the last post has turned into this

(Hint - it's a bag. It's not finished yet, still got lots of edging to go, and felting.)

And more dye has happened:

It is destined to be some sort of shawl, and I think I've worked out what I want to do with it.

More dye!

Firstly, the shawl in the last post is finished


I had 0.8g of yarn left over(about 7m). I call that success.

And on Tuesday some more dyeing happened.

I intend to get better photos when it has finished drying, and after reskeining. In theory there are three skeins in each of those colours, which may or may not make things Interesting.
