Hi Al, that one is very well. I like it. With your hability and the eyes you have choicing colors in a few days you will become great on weaves. 10

Al, if you'd like to try tour hand at a skull weave on a larger diameter blank, give me a shout. I spent about 20 minutes putting one together with VisualWeave yesterday and I'll share the pattern with you.

Al, this thread thing is contagious. After watching you work this last weekend, I'm actualy working on a wrap myself. It's baby steps (diamonds), but it made me want to try thread again. Maybe the next step will be trying a weave. Great job on this weave.

Al; I think you did just fine. Actually all you need to do is tighten things up a little more as you go and when you're finished then you'll be on your way.

Jorge and Owen,thank you. Billy,,we'll talk. Mark if you got inspired I'm thrilled. If you wrap like you make grips, WOW! MJ, I learned,, I've got a whole big bunch to learn but this is more fun than I thought. Freddy, the west coast doesn't have a thing to worry about.
Charlie its Madeira #40 design thread and Gudebrod D for the wrap. Gotta get some B & C if I can find it. Jim, thanks for the kind comment and the advice. Great book!! If there's a show next year and you're there, I'll have lots of questions.

The weaving world is in trouble now. Your and Michael getting into weaving might change the course of history. Great right out of the box.
