Home and Weaving

When I returned from Florida last week to my home in Canada, I had to self quarantine for 14 days.  It'll be a breeze, I thought!  Nope!  I never used to get bored but I have been bored a lot this past week, eating more and sitting a lot.  I am very grateful for my lovely craft of Swedish weaving, though...I can create beauty to keep my world sane.

I found a lovely and different yarn at Hobby Lobby in Kissimmee, Florida.  It's called "I Love This Yarn" and is a variegated but not the usual way.  The yarn consists of about 5 different colors twisted together and the effect on the project is fascinating.  It's also a very soft yarn and nice to work with.  I've finished one table runner except for the fringe and am working on another one.  I'll post photos when they're completed.

Someone posted a cute comment on Facebook saying that crafters who have been gathering and hoarding fabric and yarn are now justified.  Isn't that the truth??  We've always planned for future projects and darned if the future hasn't arrived when we least expected it!

Here is a photo of the yarn in the sleeve and also a close-up of the yarn itelf.  It looks rather thick in the photo but it isn't, it's a normal weight for Swedish weaving.  There are also other color choices available in this yarn.

Some of you might already know about this product but I was very pleased to find a yarn I hadn't seen or used before.
