There has been a lot happening at Warped & Wonderfu=
l the last few weeks. For a while, the silk scarf collection on the we=
bsite has been rather anemic. That has been remedied and I now have a very =
nice selection of fine silk scarves listed again. If you are looking for a =
special present for someone, be sure to take a look. http://www.warpedan=

Wraps!
The big news at Warped & Wonderful is that I will be =
weaving Baby Wraps. After receiving a couple of inquires in August abo=
ut wraps, I started doing some research. I sent out a couple of samples and=
the response to them has been very good. Actually, that's a bit of an unde=
rstatement. The fact is, I have 60 wraps on order and I am just starting to=
weave my first test wrap.
Right now all Baby Wraps will be custom woven. You pick t=
he length, pattern, and color. The patterns can be seen at http://w=
ww.warpedandwonderful.com/custom-baby-wraps.htm. There are links=
to the color choices and a pre-order form on this page also. I am keeping =
it updated with the estimated date that wraps will be woven. =
P>
I don't have any pictures yet so I'm hoping all the moms =
who receive one of my wraps will send me pictures of them in use. I would l=
ove to use some of them on my website, so let me know if I have your permis=
sion to do that when you send the pictures.
I want to thank all the crazy, passionate ladies that hav=
e been helping me. Without them, this new project would never have started.=
I am constantly amazed at their support as I ask silly questions and work =
out how to make a good baby wrap. It has been an amazing 4 weeks!
~~Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!~~
What's scheduled f=
or the loom soon=3F
Warping the loom (setting it up) is the most time consuming part of =
the weaving process. This being the case, I put long warps on the loo=
m so I can weave several items from each warp. Many different pattern=
s can be woven from the same set-up. The Baby Blankets and Wraps=
are perfect examples of this. All the patterns shown are w=
oven from the same warp set up. So by changing the color and pattern, =
a variety of blankets come off the loom. When the loom =
is set up, I can weave custom items in the color and pattern of y=
our choice. Below is a schedule of what I plan to be weaving in the c=
oming months.
<=
FONT color=3D#800040>October - December 2012 - Wr=
aps, wraps, and more wraps. I will be warping the loom a couple of tim=
es with 100+ yards of cotton to weave ordered wraps. I won't get all t=
he orders completed by the end of December, but I'll have made a dent in th=
em.
January 2013 - Baby Blankets - I=
still need to take care of the other products I offer so I will slip =
a warp for baby blankets on the loom in January and weave them off in recor=
d speed. If you want a custom baby blanket, be sure to contact me in Decemb=
er to let me know what you want. I will be weaving the custom blankets orde=
red and then fill in inventory to be listed on the website. http:=

FONT color=3D#800040>February - March 2013 - Back to w=
raps. I will put a very long warp on the loom and weave more of the wraps t=
hat have been ordered.
As Always - Tow=
els!
The "towel loom" is alw=
ays warped and ready to weave more towels at a moment's notice. As I w=
as weaving towels to fill an order yesterday, I looked at the loom and real=
ized I am about to finish the 130 yard warp I put on the loom October =
2011. I tried to order more yarn, but the supplier didn't have as much=
as I wanted. So I'll only be putting 80 yards on the loom this t=
ime. That will still last a good long time. http://warpedandwonderful.com/cotto=
