Day 16

THURSDAY 12 AUGUST 2010

I am pretty much awesome. You should know that I am a superhero. I have seen an entire project from graph paper to loom, by my own efforts, in a single day, with enough time to spare for a weave sample with 10 color ways. I rock. Just sayin'. Plus, I went out and took care of errands (on foot!). Today's gelato: ciochocolato (dark chocolate) and (e) zuppa inglesia (some sort of hazelnut-vanilla-chocolate-wafer combo). Ricotella is still my favorite. Mmmm cinnamon.

Amy had a good idea of blasting through as much cloth as possible, or at least a good chunk, enough to make a small coin purse or likewise. I would like to weave one more sample like today's (well, two would be best - one for University/Lisio and one for making bookmarks) then do color chunks to make things out of. I also need to work on the red warped loom. That one would be better for project cloth, but it will weave only half as quickly at best. I'll see.

I'm looking forward to a good session of stretching tonight. I've got to watch my posture. When working with my hands in small scale, my frame crumples further and further inward. Time to lift my chest and set my shoulders back and down. My collar bone feels tight when I stand straight. Got to feel good to look good. Streeeeeetch stretch stretch.
