Beneath the Surface

Well, I've gotten a start. Not only have I gotten a start, I (think that I) understand what I am doing. Cut the yarn, threaded the cards...and, and, AND! I warped the loom. That was the part I didn't think I'd get. The directions suck. But Dan did it a month or so ago and he had some suggestions for interpreting them.

Of course it does not look like anything yet. And it's going to look even less like anything, because I made the mistake of choosing a pattern where you only turn the cards in one direction, which apparently does not work if you're on a loom. But that's okay. I'll figure out how many turns back and forward I'll have to do so that it looks reasonable and then do that.

Mainly I want to work on getting tension right with the weft, whacking it with the beater, and all that.

Yarn is fun!
