Zoe is still being a good trooper about her weaving project. It is incredibly time consuming to set something like this up. When I teach beginning weaving, the students can not believe it will be 2-3 days before they get to throw a shuttle. And Zoe's project is not for beginners. Luckily, she knew what she was getting into. Here she is tying on the warp to the front beam. 34 sections, 34 knots.
It is so cool when you get everything in place and the warp tensioned just right. Now it is weaving time!
And here is Zoe winding bobbins with a drill. it has been a very crafty spring break here and the dining room is showing the effects! Brigid is learning to sew and is working on an apron.
Here is what the blanket looks like so far. Zoe loves random color patterns, in both the warp and the weft. I can not wait to see what it looks like done!
