The big storms of January 2023 and classes at Saori Santa Cruz New Yarns in my etsy shop and more

we made it through the storms up here in the santa cruz mountains . 80 MPH gusts and over 12 inchs of rain in less than the week. the fires scared CZU  turned into mud sides , trees fell, power lines fell, roads and bridges collasped we lost power for 6 days straight . generators kept the freezer and fridge going so we did not lose food but no Internet, phone, it was very hard to be in the dark for  that long. 

 Biden came to Santa Cruz County here he is in Capitola Village which lost half his pier.

so i spun a little time  during the black out  i praticed my poodle yarn.

look at the cute hip belt bags linda made! 

when students have sight issues the best way to thread a warp is to separate the heddle threading from the reed threading. this was linda's first threading of a ready made warp and we put it on her loom and she did not have any threading errors! and it was a 23' wide 300 warp! good job Linda!

 Just finished a great  loom bag that will fit the piccolo 40 loom and the ashford 24" or 32" non folding rigid heddle looms LOOM BAG SECTION OF MY ETSY SHOP

 

THE SAORI YARN SHELF. I have always special ordered the yarn shelves 132 cone size or 252 cone size. But i never made a etsy listing for them. i have the smaller size in the pergola studio. i like it because they have 2 options for legs. and it does not need a wall to support it .

if you have the wall space the 252 shelf is amazing too
