Just Weave It: Finding my beat
http://weavit.blogspot.com/2009/11/finding-my-beat.html
My adventures in finding time to enjoy a hobby that I love. Monday, November 9, 2009. I have six inches woven on my Color Study! That's exciting for me! My realization that I've had my loom for several years (possibly 6 years) and I'm still having trouble finding my beat makes me hesitant with any project. With my last project, a variegated twill, I had trouble keeping the beat light enough - on this, plain weave project I'm really trying to slam that reed into the weaving. Posted by Susan R.

Just Weave It: Long Time, No See
http://weavit.blogspot.com/2009/09/long-time-no-see.html
My adventures in finding time to enjoy a hobby that I love. Tuesday, September 22, 2009. Long Time, No See. We adopted a beautiful German Short Haired Pointer on August 13th. She is 10 years old, and had been at our local humane society since September 3, 2008. My loom is half warped. and I want to get in there and get the warp all tied up so that I can weave a couple of inches while Madison isn't looking! Posted by Susan R.

Just Weave It: December 2009
http://weavit.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
My adventures in finding time to enjoy a hobby that I love. Monday, December 14, 2009. I finally finished my color study blanket last week! I was in such a hurry to turn around and get a new project on the loom that I didn't update the Just Weave It blog! I'm finding that "It'll all come out in the wash" to be a pretty true statement. there. Were lots of little oddities in this weaving. I had trouble with tension and the weft packing consistently. All in all, I'm very happy with it! Posted by Susan R.

Just Weave It: Cashmere dreams
http://weavit.blogspot.com/2009/07/cashmere-dreams.html
My adventures in finding time to enjoy a hobby that I love. Thursday, July 23, 2009. I came upon this article. I love the idea of recycling yarn - which is often an expensive commodity to start with. I can't imagine purchasing cashmere, which is hard to find. I also can't begin to imagine how wonderful a bamboo and cashmere piece would feel. Ooooh. Posted by Susan R.

Just Weave It: Treatment Plan
http://weavit.blogspot.com/2009/11/treatment-plan.html
My adventures in finding time to enjoy a hobby that I love. Sunday, November 8, 2009. It's fun to connect with other weavers online. I was one of "the chosen" to get a Google Wave invite last month. I set up a Google Wave Weavers' Guild. With a little help from Janet. Chatting with several Weavers was really motivational! I actually got back to my loom room, ignoring my main excuse: an incessant dog. Behavior problems. then weaning her back off again eventually. I'm so excited to get this project going!

Just Weave It: Progress
http://weavit.blogspot.com/2009/08/progress.html
My adventures in finding time to enjoy a hobby that I love. Saturday, August 1, 2009. It's been a mighty strange week, this week! Lots of medical stuff going on. My right breast is "okay" for now. and my husband got a ureteral stent, which he then took out on his own. Um. Weird. However, I finished my little project that was on my loom! It's not perfect. But it's straight, and it's done. I'm really excited to get going on my color study blanket. And the battery keeps dying out. Posted by Susan R.
