The inspiration for the springy lambswool!

lambswool

this is the warp being wound on, its a really springy lambswool so its a bit of a pain to wind on.
That is why I'm taking a break and writing this! I've already wound the monofilament which was surprisingly easy, good news as I plan to use it in many more warps.
best get back to it!

At Last

I have some time off to do some of my own work! We've just been to Wales on a camping holiday so I've had a nice rest from weaving and managed to get my back back in to its normal position! So now I'm ready to warp up the first experimental piece which will hopefully lead to others for the exhibition. Its using similar principals of the warps I did for my degree show (monofiliment and wool) but hopefully this time I'm going to introduce a small amount of pattern as well. It might start to get a little complicated so we shall see how it goes! Pictures soon I hope!
