I live a rich and rewarding triple-life in two centuries and three different worlds. My thoughts wander deep, my hats are many, and my interests vary.
SCA/Warriors & Warlords related:
There are several opportunities for dance this year, including a Dance Ball on Saturday (7:30-onward) and classes! Dances for the ball will be taught during class, and called during the Ball. No experience or partner required.

The fiber petting zoo is ready for the library-supported Fiber Arts group next week! I have resisted the urge to make this a better A&S project in the meantime. (There are numerous variables that I'm not addressing for this group, and *that's okay*). It's exploration, not research...... right?

The red strap is just shy of 8ft, and uses the same pattern as the multi colored band.

The blue yarn is the blend I made a few weeks ago- alpaca, merino, Cotswold, bfl, and sari silk scraps.

The red single ply comes from an experiment in spinning "chunky yarn" into something a bit more usable.

Project Pile Update:
Fingerless mittens, Regency dress, and most of the warp for the upcoming experiments in double weaving. I also found a lovely purple "plaid" wool that I'd forgotten about that's itching to become a skirt. New turnshoes are higher on the priority list!

Small wins: the tea drawer is a little less chaotic now.

I promised myself to avoid last minute sewing projects before Nordskogen's 12th Night. It ended up happening a week later, just in time to requalify as last minute for the Terpsichore Troupe's utterly delightful Winter Ball.
