Designing, planning, dyeing, winding, warping, threading, reeding, weaving, then maybe a bit of felting…and then you start again.
But I don’t really care if anyone wants a reason for my silence, shit happens – and blogs aren’t top priority when you are throwing up every day, your 3-year-old has hit “toddler-dom”, school, wakeful nights and tantrums all at once…and recently I have a sinus head cold to make me feel like crap.
