Catrina Mitchell from Juneau, Alaska winds the skein of weft onto the ball winder to create a ball of weft – working from a ball of weft is much easier to draw the yarn from than the skein…<\/p><\/div>\n

A student of Ravenstail and Chilkat, Catrina Mitchell knows what she wants to do in the evenings and on the weekends this Fall and Winter into Spring:\u00a0 Ravenstail weaving!\u00a0 We’re excited!\u00a0 Am I going to reveal WHAT she is weaving, for WHO and WHEN she wants it done?\u00a0 NO.\u00a0 Hello…That’s a secret!\u00a0 It’s enough to know she is one of several women on a mission to complete her weaving(s) by Celebration 2014 next year. — For those of you who haven’t gotten started on your weaving; what are you waiting for?\u00a0 Winter is coming!\u00a0 Let’s get on the ball and have fun!\u00a0 And let’s join for a Weavers’ dance and song next year!<\/p>\n

Catrina has warped up her loom (or “dressed” her loom) – She wove her first row (called the “anchoring row”) and before she weaves her first 5 rows of white, she is now double-checking the length of each warp end making sure they are all the same length<\/p><\/div>\n

Catrina is happy to remember how to do Jennie Thlunaut’s fingering for speed, accuracy, tension and most of all:\u00a0 GRACE!<\/p><\/div>\n

A perfect Weaver’s Tote! Each compartment has a purpose of its own – four distinct places for the four colors: black, white, yellow, blue – compartments for pen and small spiral-bound notebook – compartment for scissors, large-eye tapestry needles, cotton twine\/sinew, and then some!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
