365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Half-Warped
Day 89: Between participating in the Park's winter fitness challenge and trying to keep up with daily tasks and obligations, personal time is at a premium. Today, I managed to get the warping of the loom halfway finished.
Here you see the warp wound onto the back beam and the 288 ends threaded through the heddles. Next up, I will mount the reed in the beater bar (disassembled to facilitate the threading process) and will bring each end through a single dent (slot). When that task is finished, the warp will be tied to the cloth beam and I will be ready to start weaving (hopefully tomorrow).
