So now I know

I've been weaving scarves for my grandchildren as their Christmas presents.  People have asked me how long it takes me to weave a scarf and I wasn't really sure.  It's one of those projects that you can pick up and put down.  But today I've been working on one that I need to finish before Christmas and I figured out that actual weaving time works out to about nine inches an hour.  The scarves contain 72 inches of woven fabric (11  inches wide in case you're curious) so that means each scarf takes about eight hours of actual weaving time, not counting the finish work.  So now you know what I've been doing in my spare time today - four hours to go on this one.  Which further explains why this is such a late and short blog.
