Back weaving

This isn't what I'd wanted to start first but it was the only piece of fabric I had pre-prepared and I had a whole day to kill at my grandson's house while some work was being done there.  

I started out with Caron's Simply Soft Party yarn in the silver sparkle and then followed with snow sparkle but I don't like the silver in this case so I think I'll pull it out and decide on another color...don't know for sure yet which one.

It's so good to be back weaving.  All my tools were in my car trunk and I didn't get my car back until last week.  It's much better to be keeping my hands busy with a craft needle instead of a fork.

Working on this lovely piece of turquoise monk's cloth makes me so sad that we won't be able to get the colored cloth any more.  I especially wish I'd been able to stock up on the red before it all disappeared because the only craft show I sell at is near Christmas time.  

Well, I'll post a photo of the finished item and then I really have to start a special table runner for my good friend, Arlean.  She wants rose shades on white fabric and, as of today, I have no white fabric prepared.  I've been putting that off until I have my spring housecleaning done and it's about 75% done now.  First things first and then I can do what I really enjoy and that's the Swedish weaving!
