Less than perfect selvedges with this yarn.  But I kind of like how it looks.

handwoven with my daughter – selecting bobbins, winding on the wool warp and stepping/pressing the treadles

threading the heddles

My favorite part of the process.  These bundles are tied looser than the last time I used this material.  Threading with sticky, slightly stiff threads.  Knowing how to work with them and not against them.  Also reflective of my state as I work.  A bit more comfortable and free (while still maintaining order during set up).
