A link I’ve been meaning to pass along: samples of 18th century dyed felt. Pretty!
Instead of doing fiber arts (or rather, fiber arts I can talk about), I’ve been learning how to do some photo manipulation. I have a lot to learn, but I’m having fun.
Actually, that’s not entirely true: I have been doing some fiber arts. I have a pair of socks finished except for grafting the toes, and I’ve been working on a pair of socks two at a time on two circulars. But I decided they weren’t quite right, pulled them out, and completely couldn’t remember how to get them started on two needles again. I tried several things unsuccessfully; I need to sit down with the directions.
Beyond that, I’ve been reading, writing, researching 10th c. al-Andalus, working a lot, sick a lot. You know, my usual busy self, even given the sick a lot.
