We who tat, we who play the organ, we who weave know
about concentration.
If we’re not concentrating at the organ, a stray
accidental can creep in. If we’re not concentrating with the shuttle, a stray
picot can creep in. If we’re not concentrating at the loom, a stray float can
creep in.
My concentration hasn’t been up to snuff lately. The fix
for that is usually to reduce the noise in my schedule and thus clear the brain
cells a bit. More on that later. For now, I’ll just be untatting, repeating
that section of the piece, and counting my passes on the warping board a bit more
often.
In reading what others are saying about Round 4 of
Renulek’s Wiosna 2017, it seems like this section needs more concentration. Perhaps
I’ll set that aside until after I get a motif mounted and ready for framing. I
discovered standing in the frame shop that I had oriented the motif off 10
degrees. That doesn’t sound like it would matter, except that there really is a
“start here” in the design. I don’t want people getting a crick in their neck
looking at my creation!
Back to work….after a walk by the sea!
