| Such pretty, pretty thread... |
So this is my evening—setting up to weave a ceinture for my bliaut,
and eating a delicious custard with blackberries in it (because I like
to combine activities in unwise fashions, like eggy dessert and fine
silk thread).

The upside-down kitchen chairs have been vastly
helpful in any number of craft projects, and once again they came to the
rescue, since I don’t actually own an inkle loom. The way they’re set
up, I managed to wind a continuous warp, too. Very exciting, especially
since it means I didn’t have to fiddle with 41 ends of 20/2 silk trying
its damnedest to turn into a Gordian knot.
The warp pattern is largely courtesy the pattern generator at
Carolingian Realm, and the custards are from
here. And now, it is time to make the heddles and start the weaving!
