The first day with my class for this time, we looked and traded some samples my classmates have weaved sins last time and talked about them. But the main focus today was to learn how to analyse a weave, what to bring with you than doing so and we made samples of different materials and yarn thicknesses to compare with,

The day started at the local museum where we were to take a closer look at the fabrics we picked last time and the reason for the preparations yesterday. I went through the checklist and ticked parts of at a good pace. But one thing I could not get around was drawing the fabric so I could do a draft of it. This because the warp threads can move sideways and the Inlay is black at some parts and green on the most, so you might follow a green then it turns black at some point and its super confusing. At least I now know that the black and green are two threads in the same shed. All other things I need to know I have written down and I have taken some good close-ups so I will give it another try some other day. Then we got back and eaten lunch we hade a meeting with all textile student about the Exhibition we will have at the end of the school year. After that, we hade some more analyses weave talk. So the end product of this is that we will have an exhibition at the museum with the original, my reproduction and something we have developed to our own with the weave. The reproductions will be presented in paper frames with one raw weave and one that has been washed and worked with. My ide for the ''make it my own part'' is a coat with a dwarf ala hobbit them.

Today is Saint Lucia's day and I went to the school celebration, it was a beautiful Lucia train. After that, I did some winter cleaning in my locker and sorted my papers into folders. Then I did a yarn tangle of what I have spun this semester and counted how much I got so far 102 meters and a bit. We were only two left at this point so I stayed with her spinning and I almost spun as much as I tock of earlier.
