(I'm going to make a similar attempt - although it's a designated sample so it's allowed to come out tiny and ugly.<br /><br />The blankets look great!!! <br /><br />Weaving is slow, but knitting is even slower....and knitting is huge around here. Seems like every library and knitting store has a knitting group.

As if I'm doing something against the tide. <br /><br />I certainly don't intend to give it up, but it feels somewhat... incongruous to my expectation of my life.<br /><br />At any rate, with my stash, it's easier to keep going than to try to get rid of it! :-DMeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01350447919000146804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27254015.post-10689628617523121432010-01-09T20:12:21.113+13:002010-01-09T20:12:21.113+13:00Hi Meg; certainly in our technologically savvy so...Hi Meg; certainly in our technologically savvy society, the art of weaving probably seems a redundant skill to most people.<br />But, we have the luxury of turning it into an art form, if we wish; and I think that for a lot of weavers it is an important form of self-expression.<br />For this reason, and others, I happen to think it's a very valuable skill that we can't/shouldn't let go of. So, my dictum is, keep warping the yarn, dressing the loom, and throwing the shuttle and rejoice in the fact that we can do it.<br />Kind regards.avid weavernoreply@blogger.com
