Spring

(We are grateful.  The storms in our area were south of us & we have no damage.)

Had this out at the public library & didn't get much weaving accomplished.   Did not find any mistakes tho ...

The kit has fiber; however, I'm using Lizbeth, Size 20, Col. 159 & Col. 646 -- the kit comes with white fiber to complete four patterns.

Joan Brash kit & instructions.  

Kit includes custom loom, needle, fiber, + four patterns/instructions.  

This is an incredible book.  82 pages - and spiral edge.  Clear diagrams & lovely projects.  Charming cover!

 I have had our 16mo old granddaughter here q o week.   Wow.   Never a dull moment! Lots of closed doors, putting things higher up!  Overtired once she is back home.   She will be back here on the 23rd.  Not much tatting to report.    Did manage one angel wing -- and will launch the 2nd wing!   One day I will have a completed angel.

IMO - you need to have on hand:  scissors, tape measure/ruler, scotch tape.   I like to have (nearby) pin cushion, needle threader, stiletto, post-it note, & longer needle.

Misc.

My friend gave me these two vintage Weave-It looms.

I enjoy looms / yarns.

I have a bag in the works - which I forgot about until I was gifted the two looms.   Had a hunt, and it was in a project bag.

 Made with a zoom loom.   Tolt Folded Bag pattern.  I need to add a handle.  I've had this WIP for awhile!

Part of a blog post 3/27/2022:

This project, I found in a box.   I won a Zoom Loom and 3 balls of yarn.   Made the squares, and somehow put it away - never put it together.   I think, not sure, that it was a giveaway thru Facebook.  Schacht Spindle Co & Classic Elite Yarns.   My plan was to sew the strips together and fold them into a Tolt Folded Bag.   So I hope to get the 3rd row of squares put together & now that I found the ball of yarn, can sew the 3 rows together.   Fingers crossed this works.

----------------------------------------------

 I found this in my "travel bag".  Met up with friends and put in some of the weaving.  Spinning Star.   A very nice kit - and I switched the kit fiber with Lizbeth fiber.  An excellent to go kit.

The kit has fiber; however, I'm using Lizbeth, Size 20, Col. 159 -- the kit comes with white fiber to complete four patterns.  When the colors in the fiber changes it creates a striped look.  Maybe would be better with a solid color after all.

The pastel colors in the spokes and knots are ok -- maybe I should have changed to a solid color for the needle weaving.
