Talk about a photo op, Jimi likes to be involved in the activities that go on around here. Wonder what he's thinking right now, he looks so eager.
This is 22 yards of warp on the beam for the rest of the placemats. When winding, finally realized how the last one came up short. It takes two turns to make one yard, so last time, instead of having 20 yards, there was only 10.

Weaving frustration

This is the table runner to go with the placemats posted a few weeks ago. You can see the pin and ribbon used for measuring. The runner was supposed to be 2 1/2 times as long as a 14" placemat, so it was moved up as needed.

Garage sale find
Baby sweater, revisited
After finishing the back and two fronts of the Trellis Baby Sweater, found that the decreases for one of the front pieces was in the wrong place! Decided to start over on a circular needles and do all three at one time. You can see the new row counter, it was the best $3.24 ever spent.
This is the first attempt, am much happier with the circular knit one so far.
