So my mind has been very manic lately. Been having a hard time streamlining it down to one train of thought. Luckily I have hobbies to help keep my mind busy.
Couldn't seem to sleep, so I've decided to warp another scarf. I've been doing math ((SO. MUCH. MATH.)) to figure out how to make a decent size scarf with exactly 100g of sock yarn, with as little waste as possible.
I have my dimensions for warping 50g (approx 230 yards), but I'm concerned that the 50g left for the weft won't be enough, and I'll have to cut and waste most of the warp.
So to test my theories, I'm using some Serenity Sock I got in a yarn swap forever ago:
 |
| Messy, mid-rearrangement living room. |
 |
| I know the lighting sucks. There is no sun.
|
I figured I'm not so emotionally attached to this yarn that if any of it goes to waste, it's not a big deal. How sad is it that I'm emotionally attached to some of my yarn?
5:30am: Just finishing warping, but I have to wait for the husband to wake up to help me wrap everything up. Maybe I should go get coffee?
 |
| A happy accident: The plaid is coming from the yarn, not a pattern. |
8:30AM: Got everything threaded and a good chunk of weaving done. This is going to look nice. Maybe I should try to take a nap now.
