Last week, Joan “won” an auction for a 40″ loom.<\/p>\n

It was donated to the Grapevine<\/a>\u00a0(a social service agency located in Antrim) and included in their recent fund-raising auction. Thus, a good cause was supported.<\/p>\n

She picked up the disassembled loom on Sunday afternoon and by midnight that evening we had it assembled even sans<\/em> manual. Not bad for two people had never really examined a loom up close before.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, we were\u00a0finally able to make the short trip to Harrisville Designs<\/a>, one of our local purveyors of all things “fiber”. Joan needed to get some “stuff” necessary to use a loom but that was not among “stuff” that came with the loom. (As you can see, I am up on all the technical jargon associated with weaving.)<\/p>\n

My presence on this excursion was not essential. However, I decided to accompany Joan on her trip for a number of reasons…<\/p>\n

1) To get out of the house during this stretch of miserable weather.<\/p>\n

2) To, hopefully, keep the expenses associated with the “stuff” to be acquired as low as possible. This, of course, leaves more cash available for photography stuff<\/del> tools!<\/p>\n

3) To have a chance to photograph interesting “stuff”!<\/p>\n
