Conference is done, animals I was petsitting are now under the care of their owners once again, we have made vague progress on house stuff.
I really hope my switch is actually coming tomorrow because I really want some serious relaxing time.
Other than the incredible yardage I've been plying for a little bit at a time. That is taking a while. That project is the Lincoln longwool (4oz) and Coopworth (8oz), that I got as washed fleece, combed and spun incredibly fine in matching thickness to be for future tablet weaving projects because the lincoln is a nice light grey and the coopworth is a dark brown grey and they will look good. But they wanted to be spun fine and fine spun singles take a long time and so does plying them. If I was just weaving with them, I would absolutely just use them as singles but tablet weaving requires strength to stand up to the abrasion of the tablets more than plain weave.
I have been unable to locate the warping board when I was at the storage unit last week but I will be going back over on Tuesday to wrap everything up at the apartment except maybe returning the keys and I can dig in the storage unit where I think the warping board is.
There's not really a rush because I haven't worked on my current weaving project since I moved. Tired.
