I wove the last coaster for the year. So after dinner I cleaned off my work table. Packaged all the random yarn into bags by color. Then reorganized the weaving cart. I have 1 3/4 trays filled with bags of yarn. One loom and all the smaller weaving tools on 1/4 of the second tray. The top tray had the larger small loom and the warp. I was told if I put everything thing away in an organized fashion, I would be more productive in the long run
You might remember that before I started this small weaving binge for the mudd rugs aka coasters I had all 3 trays overflowing with small skeins of hand spun yarn. This is a good thing. Coasters are leaving the house as gifts. Well almost all of the coasters. I did fall in love with 2 that I will be keeping.
I also tinked a summer top that I had started. With the rate I was knitting compared to how fast the inches and weight are leaving. It would have been too large to wear before I even finished the back. So after tinking the sweater, I cleaned out the bag. I replaced the yarn with a skein of yarn to make a shawl. I choose a pattern that will look good no mater how much weight I lose. Even losing a few more sizes it will still look good.
So this is how I left my small weaving cart. The small carrier bag is for yarn scraps that will go into future dog pillows. No I have not organized the entire room yet. I project at a time.
