Polwarth braid 5 ounces from Wonderland Dyeworks (x2) Pair of colorful carded batts from Siren Song Fleece Works Romney\/Corriedale  (x2) Update\/Correction from last Episode There are two new versions of the classic Green Book aka A Weaver\u2019s Pattern Book The one I talked about pre-ordering last time is the one done by Gather Textiles. They are a Canadian publisher. It will be published in December 2026 and they are taking preorders.  There is also one done by the BARN Center in the Pacific Northwest of the USA and MPD\u2019s grand-daughter. This is the one we talked about many episodes ago. It will be published in June 2027 and preorders are also available. Marsha\u2019s Projects Git \u2018Em on the Loom Towels: Wound a 6 yard warp and for towels. About \u00bd of the ends are threaded through the reed.  Garden Cardigan by AnkeStrick. Using Kelbourne Woolens Scout in the colorway Moss Heather. Finished the first sleeve. Socks: Using Madeline Tosh sock in the colorway Plum Tree. About to start the heel flap of the second sock. Garden Redesign: I\u2019ve created a project page. The handrail and railing have been installed. A privacy fence, arbor, and gate are being built. Designer planting bulbs in both back and south gardens, and planting crocuses in the south lawn. Kelly\u2019s Projects The Boxy Sweater has a finished neckband, but I decided I needed to make the bottom band a little longer. So I\u2019m still working on that before I can pick up and knit the sleeves.  Naturally dyed blanket is done! More weft forward than I anticipated. A 2-2 twill should be balanced, but it\u2019s not quite. I have too many ppi for the epi. Quite a bit smaller than I envisioned. But I like the level of fulling that I did. Interesting change in the purpleleaf dyed yarn once I washed the blanket. I washed the blanket with Orvus paste. The yarn went from a purple-ish gray beige to a greenish yellow. Marked difference from the other skeins I dyed with purpleleaf leaves.  Hats 16 and 17 are done and gone!  Winter Weave Along:  Going until March 31. Join us for any weaving you\u2019re doing!
