Away at last

0 left to thread :-)
Weaving begins, I noticed one thread threaded wrong two on board 2 and missing a 3 so clipped the heddle and moved it back a board to 3. Also missed a reed out in two places which leaves what looks like a thread gap but isn't. 

Nearly There

84 to go

Tweed number 2

Beaming for a second time, then on to threading for hours, mind a nice yarn to handle and look at

I've added pages of  the beaming process

Leather arrived

It's all been happening the leather arrived and has now been fitted to replace the old perished leather, and very smart it looks too.

Looks right proper does that!



First attempt collected from The Carloway Mill, after they have finished it. I was very pleased with the outcome for a first attempt....... on to practice piece number 2.
