Trying something new

I have several shelves of thread to weave with.

I don't care for much of it.

More than a little is too heavy for shirts I want to make.

It will go to the Art Institute soon.

Next week Linda and I are going to North Carolina,

with our walking shoes, 

to look at 18,000 square feet of thread.

In the meantime, what to do.

This warp has 30 ends per inch;

Twenty are cotton slub and the other ten are any interesting thing on the shelf.

I wove off in periwinkle.

Not exciting.

Until I turned it sideways.

It's taking me too long to weave right now.

I spent three or four days weaving the small, one pound cone of periwinkle,

and another several days getting it ready to cut and sew.

Today I made exactly one shirt.

Tomorrow I'll make the other two sizes, for Etsy, and get them posted.

I am so slow because my back is uncompromisingly painful.

No quarter given.

However, I am finally through four months of protocol.

A week from Monday

I can tell you all about radiofrequency ablation.

Well,maybe Tuesday.
