This is the 15th year of continuous daily publication for 365Caws. All things considered, it's likely it will be the last year as it is becoming increasingly difficult for me to find interesting material. However, I hope that I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world with my natural history posts, or encouraged a novice weaver or needleworker. If so, I've done what I set out to do.

Planned Chaos
Day 233: Posts for the next few days may be limited or non-existent. We are currently navigating a particularly rough patch, and I would prefer not to go into detail at this time.
This is planned chaos. The mix of wools was listed as "botanicals," so how could I resist? I love greens. I took each single colour, split it into 64 sections, and recombined them in colour order but not necessarily with the same amount of each shade. I spun 16 sequences on each of two bobbins (a quarter of the wool), stepping the colour order up by one for the second bobbin so that when I plied the two bobbins together, the colours changed in combination every few inches. From the original bag of wool, the end result was two skeins of Green Chaos, destined to make some truly fun socks.
