I decided that I want to make a blanket... so it was carded and spun... and woven... it was so much red fiber that I ended up with 2,5 blankets...<br />
<br />
The first one was already finished before the summer break...<br />

I finished weaving the second blanket and had left over yarn and left over warp... so I did some experiments with one of my first coil yarns.</div>

Yesterday I reached the end of the warp... although there is still a bit of red yarn left over.</div>

There are mistakes in it, but I had a lot of fun playing with the colors. I love the pattern and I will make more... but right now it is too exciting to try out different things.<br />
<br />
I already started the next project, a scarf for my boyfriend... he bought me the loom. I have put a warp of grey Holst Supersoft yarn, enough for 2 scarfs. As weft I use some handspun BFL that I dyed in blues and greens...<br />

If only there was more time for the fun stuff... at least I found time to go for a walk again with my father. There are some small lakes near where we live and I often go there and to the woods next to them with my father on sunday mornings. There are some indian runner ducks living there and I just love them. They are so used to people that they come running and take their food from your hand... </div>

Every monday evening I go to my weaving school. It is an old building and it always was a weaving school. Today it is also a museum: <a href="http://www.haus-der-handweberei.de/" target="_blank">Haus der Handweberei Sindelfingen</a>.<br />
<br />
It's a lot of fun and it's always a bit sad to stop when class is over or when there are holidays and there is no weaving class for 6 weeks (in the summer).<br />
<br />
But now my boyfriend decided that he wants to buy me a floor loom. I started looking for one and finally found a used Glimakra Ideal, 100cm weaving width, 8-shaft Countermarch loom. It was exactly what I wanted, the price was ok and it was an hours drive. I was very excited when I won the ebay auction.<br />
<br />
Last weekend we went there and got the loom: a wooden puzzle.<br />
<br />

I still need some stuff to tie it up and other things, but I hope I can put my first warp on it next weekend.XScarshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07454073309730215539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21872638.post-4064820337517123472015-02-02T08:12:00.001+01:002015-02-02T08:12:46.791+01:00Last weeks bentos...The past week was rather busy, but at least I made bento everyday.<div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-kT_Jw5RZ1CA/VM8jbGWaXBI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/PlH33xlobd4/s640/blogger-image--1824883599.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-kT_Jw5RZ1CA/VM8jbGWaXBI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/PlH33xlobd4/s640/blogger-image--1824883599.jpg"></a></div><br></div>XScarshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07454073309730215539noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21872638.post-56149528687351368152015-01-26T13:54:00.001+01:002015-01-26T13:54:17.296+01:00Last weeks bentos<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

During the holidays I managed to knit a whole cardigan, but it is still missing the buttons. And I also started a to knit a ingenious but slightly insane pattern: <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fox-paws" target="_blank"> Fox Paws</a>.</div>

And something more to show... we did a swap on Ravelry; a advent calendar version of the Swap for Scraps: everyone had to pack 24 equal bags of 5 gr fiber which then were redistributed so that everyone ended up with 24 different bags. It was so much fun because I decided to try and spin and knit the fiber on the same day.</div>

The first item is an <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/irida-shawl" target="_blank">Irida </a>shawl (from the first PLY magazine, knitted from handspun yarn. It is from the last <a href="http://stores.fatcatknits.com/" target="_blank">FatCatKnits </a>Club and while I really love the yarn it is just not a color I would wear:<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Also my towels which I wove in weaving class are off the loom (but not yet sewn), so time for planing a new project: a scarf with honey comb pattern. I will use a handspun yarn that I spun with samples from a phat fiber sample box and plyed with a silk thread. </div>

Then I took a workshop about supported spindling (and also spun a lot of long draw on my wheel) I kind of rediscovered my supported spindles. So much fun...<br />
<br />
I was lucky to get 2 new spindles, made by "A spinners lair". Sadly he passed aways several years ago. I already had one spindle made by him and liked it very much. These are my new spindles, tibetian style supported spindles.<br />
