Today we hade a company at school named companion that should teach us about starting our own company, as I have studied this back then I was in High School and had a hobby company for many years now this didn't give me much. Not looking forward to the following two sessions we will have with them.

This Tuesday the Textile class hade an embroidery session with some lady that has done a lot of embroideries and I weren't really interested but my two classmates wear so no dressing of the loom today, did some sewing instead on one of my old clokes.

I thought the embroidery thing where today too, but after lunch, I got the information that it was the regular teacher in embroidery that should have the textile students today, and that my classmates were not joining them today. I felt sort of bummed that we missed an opportunity to dress my loom but guess we will do it tomorrow. Today's work has gone to research about needles found from the Viking era as it would be interesting to at least try using the period once then I sow the tent.

One of my classmates was sick today so no dressing of looms today either but at least I get a lot of sewing done on my clock. I also started working on my bone needles, I will do them in sheep bone and use the once fond from björkö as a guideline.

Today we finally started dressing my loom. Due to the mess I hade made we had to take it really slow and after 3 hours we were almost halfway through. just before lunch, the threads started to really cross each other and I decided that we were to do the rest on Monday.
