This is the current view from the loom.
When I am weaving a baby wrap or anything, for that matter, I get wrapped up in the process and forget about everything else. Especially the computer. Weaving is a type of meditation for me. I enjoy every step and tune our the world. I watch the shuttle move from edge to edge and enjoy seeing the fabric grow. Sometimes, I listen to a book on disc and find several minutes have passed and I haven't heard a word.
The warp currently being wound
This is the warp for the next baby wraps being woven. Janet is busy at the warping reel winding this warp. She does it in 4 bouts or sections of over 200 threads each. Then, they are wound onto the back beam of the loom and threaded into the heddles to prepare for weaving. We're still a few weeks away from that.
Tropical Delight, the sister wrap to Tropical Breezes, is available for purchase in our Easy shop. It's 3.5 meters long and 27" wide. It's a soft, sturdy, light and lovely wrap awaiting a home. It's brand new, never wrapped, never worn. It could be yours!
