I got ticked for implying that the KV Guild was a collection of wine-swilling play girls. We are not like that at all. Last evening was spent in helping two members decide what to weave for the rest of the week without much success. In other words, we made frivolous suggestions and they rejected them.
Yesterday I was warped up and ready to go by lunchtime. But I had brought my loom with the warp wound on as had one other person whereas everyone else had to start from scratch on an unknown loom. They are mostly 16 shaft table looms (Harris?) and quite unwieldy. So I spent the afternoon weaving a few samples from the yarn I had brought for weft. This morning the tutor is going to talk to us all about the lift plans. Three people by the way are on computer controlled AVLs with 24 shafts. I have some photos but they are for the record, not very pretty. My choice of weft yarn has so far been yucky.
Wine-swilling play girls?? Sounds to me like a sensible way to spend an evening!
