If I can get the pics to upload, I thought I'd share my first weaving project since before my diagnosis. I used to weave a fair bit. This is a simple shawl/throw to get me back into the swing of things. It's not my usual, I typically weave either fine, complicated stuff or nice cozy wool and silk blankets. But for a restart, this looked about right. The skein on the left is slubby natural cotton, and will be used as weft. The other materials are mercerized cotton in different colors, and a variegated textured yarn called 'Tempo'.
