One day at a time.

Even though it is in the single digits, I just finished some lightweight cotton shawls, that speak to me of summer nights. Trouble is, they don't speak loudly enough to make me forget winter.
They are pretty though.....I made three of them, all the same warp, with different wefts. They are plain weave and Bronson lace, for anyone who wants to know.
I am thinking of making more in different colors.
What do you think??

With my fine inventory skills, I realized that I had two 4'x6' wool Solmate sock rugs that didn't make my web site. Kind of hard to sell them, if you don't put them up. I have to admit that I fall somewhat short of perfect with keeping track of what I have, and what I don't have. It causes me problems sometimes. I am working on improvement in that category. Trouble is, there are so many categories, and so little time.
If you know what I mean.

This morning was taken up with taking my mother to the doctor, and by the time I got back to the pharmacy when her prescriptions were ready, and I got to the studio, it was 1pm. Not my usual. But I was determined to stay in a positive frame of mind. So I had a salad for lunch, and got to work.
I had the Weaver's Friend warped and threaded, and I am in a red and pink mode.
So here you have it. Kind of puts me in the mood for Valentine's Day.

Looking out the window, spring seems far away. The setting sun was throwing shadows of the trees on the snowy meadow. The weatherman on NPR was telling tales of more woe to come.
This little nest looks quite uninhabitable, and will be for quite some time.
Guess I will be stoking up the fire, and doing a lot more weaving.
It is what it is.
