      <image:caption>Linen weaving in progress on the “Beede” loom. Don’t look too closely at the stripes in the center of this warp, please! I made the warp more than a year ago when I was first practicing multi-strand warping, and very consistently turned my hand the wrong direction for the stripes I intended to make. My first set of knitted heddles are visible beyond the fell line (complete with red yarn marking a threading error and the insertion of a single heddle). The temple, with scribed date(s?) from about 1850 also came with the loom. I still have a handful of workshops to teach this fall, and the grant reporting for my USDA SARE project to complete, but I hope to spend a goodly portion of my time spinning and weaving. One of my main goals: get all of my unfinished warps woven off! Some of my looms are in unheated studio spaces, so we’ll see how this goes. I am spinning for a blanket weaving project. I have about 2,000 yards of the 8,000 I’ll need completed. It’s very good to have a task like this to turn to (both mindful and mindless) as civil society in the United States continues to deteriorate. As Jonathan V. Last says, “Good luck, America.”</image:caption>

The willow is mulched with layers of cardboard, all the waste wool from our shearing in April, and layers of partially-composted hay/manure. It’s been a dream of mine for years to establish a basket willow planting, and I am glad it is finally happening.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>We raise Shetland, Icelandic, and Romney sheep for high-quality wool, and we grow flax, hemp and natural dyes for textile use. We conduct natural fiber research on-site and teach textile arts: bast fiber cultivation, hand spinning, floor- and warp-weighted loom weaving, and related topics. We are based in Vermont, in the tiny town of Danby, on the north slope of Dorset Mountain.</image:caption>
