On my Macomber at home is...

Some more deflected doubleweave, my own draft. This time it's on just 8 shafts, and it's psuedo-yardage, it is destined to be chopped up into 3" squares and sent off to the members of the Weavers Guild of Boston (in other words, it's the Guild's winter sample). Weaving with 14/2 alpaca silk from Webs that I had in my stash, lime green and teal in the warp, grey and grey-teal in the weft. It's been a while since I've woven yardage, it's freeing not to have to worry about tucking in ends and making neat selvedges!

As my son reminds me every day... Christmas is a week away, yikes! Wishing everyone a lovely holiday, and wishing for some snow here! (Supposed to be 60F next week, terrible news if you're a skier. Which I am. Dratted El Nino!)
