Liftoff

Weaving is happening! The loom is behaving just fine after a few tweaks by the resident computer expert and adjusting the auto cloth advance. Sheila is playing with twills, using up some stash. I have essentially Vegged for the afternoon. Suppose I should actually dig into my bucket of hemming or at least knit a bit.

The temps have dropped so it isn't quite so warm, much cooler than at home actually. After such a long winter I am trying to soak up as much sun as possible. And not complain about the heat after whining so much about the cool weather earlier in the year!

One more day here, then head back to the mainland on Monday, south to Seattle and Portland. The days slither by so quickly...

Why the towels (if that's what it is) wrapped around the cloth beam either side of the fabic?

Sheila doesn't like the bare sandpaper so protects herself from accidental abrasion by rolling towels around the beam.

Cheers
