Back in Business

The loom is finally back in its place right in front of the TV.


 The warping board is not. It is now in the sewing room on this door hooky thing. It's working just fine.



I've still got my handy old tea can doing the job of holding the cones.



As for the warping itself, it seems I can't count to 24. I've just started and I've had to fix it already. It's been a while since I've done this and I really had to stop and think.


It's a pretty simple pattern. 24 of one color then 8 gray. Repeat, repeat, repeat.


I'm also using counting threads so I don't have to wrestle with the raddle when the time comes. That means counting to 10 also. 24, 8 and 10. That's too many numbers for my poor old rusty brain.
