first batch of rainbow tea towels!

my first batch of tea towels is complete! they're so pretty and i was not at all done playing with color, so we made a new warp in the same color palette. 

i say we, because i am very fortunate to have my own personal weaving mentor, who gave me her loom and who is helping me every step of the way. 

to start off with, i played with some yarn i had in my stash - love the tweed effect of the nubbly yarn. i did enough to be able to make a little bag and now i've begun on the next set of tea towels.

Hey, Julochka. I was unable to sleep so spent some time reading my old blog. I had linked to you a few times. You can't imagine how happy I was to come here and find you still blogging. Just wanted to say hello.

Hi Relyn, so nice to see you! Those were the days! I'm still keeping this here, sporadically, as it was always about me trying to think things through for myself and also a place to preserve my memories. Are you going to blog again? Or are you on substack these days, like the rest of the world?

They are gorgeous! How do you find time for all your creations?!? I'm in awe of your creativity. Also, that's quite a lot of tea towels...

I have to make time or go crazy. Someone I know wants 8 of them, so that's a lot of them spoken for! Must make more! I'm weaving for my sanity!
