Not Much Progress...
to report, I'm afraid. Still trying to get the Falling Leaves scarves woven up. I've been busy/distracted by several commitments related to work, community band, and yes, housekeeping. I just finished weaving the first one yesterday, and was amazed at the increased amount of weft needed just for one scarf. Usually I get away with 2-2.5 pirns per scarf when weaving with 8/2 tencel. This time I'm using the same material, but the sett is closer, so the increased over/under is really eating up the weft. I used 3.5 for the first scarf alone. Lots and lots of pirn winding in my future, unfortunately.
Per a reader's request, here is a photo of the draft for Falling Leaves. I did not create it - it was kindly shared by a weaver on Ravelry who's ravatar is "tonigatland" (http://www.ravelry.com/people/tonigatland).
Believe it or not, I've been on vacation for the last week and a half, yet still been too busy to even come close to accomplishing what I'd hoped I would. It's only during these last 5 days that my other commitments have not had a hold on me and I've been able to relax a bit. Where does the time go???
