Harcourt Park Joust

Weaving
Originally uploaded by stellar_muddle_2

Playing with the warp weighted loom at Harcourt Park Joust 2011, continuing the weaving set up at Taupo and continued at CF. Should have thought about the perils of long dangly sleeves earlier, but 2 pins gave a temporary fix. Was also somewhat on the hot side for that weight of wool.

Plenty of weaving progress but was getting a bunch of broken threads by the end of the second day, so the threads may be a little weak for warp threads.

For Gaelic music fans

For Gaelic music fans out there (Mum and alpha_angel specifically), just found Julie Fowlis who sounds very nice and I will have to track down more of.
You can listen to 3 songs via her website and there is a video link here via Terri Windling's blog
