Arlene tells me she has 40 towels woven up and ready to sell. Well, I am behind the 8 ball and must get a move on and weave up some more towels. I was glad to have kept the draft and math involved with a previous project, as this will save me time. The 'Keep it Simple' towels will be the next on the loom.
I have volunteered to demonstrate Kumihimo at the festival. Kumihimo means braid & cord in Japanese. There are so many websites that have information on the many different kinds of braids, I am going to keep to 7 or 8 strand braiding with several different patterns. I have a commercial foam disk, but have also bought some foam at the dollar store and have made some other types of braiding disks. The last time I did this (2 years ago), I posted the pattern instructions on my blog for a few weeks and will do so again.
