Today the students in the Stashbuster Mixed Warp o Today the students in the Stashbuster Mixed Warp on the Rigid Heddle Loom class returned to warp their looms. They used the week between classes to fully decide on their yarns and make a wrapping on cardboard to see if they liked the looks of their chosen yarns. Then they learned a modified direct warping technique to design in the reed. Look at these lovely mixed warps all beamed up on their looms! We sent them home to weave and hope to get pics in progress.

EISHET NOACH Shawl; Eishet Noach. The wife of Noah, who is mentioned in the story a few times, but not by name. She is a woman of Valor. She was the strength, the comfort, the partner alongside her husband. "Eshet-chayil mi yimtza v'rachok mip'ninim mikrah" A woman of valor who can find her? She is far more precious than jewels. The muted colors represent a cloudy day, leaves from when there were trees before the rain, and the feather down the middle is from the dove. This Shawl is made from 100% linen. The fabric was hand dyed, stenciled, and painted. As with items that are made by hand, there may be some irregularities. $250 Hours each day of the sale are: Friday, November 8, 4 pm to 8pm Saturday, November 9, 10 am to 4 pm Sunday, November 10, noon to 4 pm
