Tired but enjoyable start

Today is the first day of the technical block, I will be in weave group in this two weeks.

In the morning, each of us picked two yarns for warping with the help of tutor, then started to warp samples on card. I chose navy and gold. I think two colours of yarn are a little bit limited, but it was easy for us to have a good start. I saw lots of creative samples made by my peers.

Then in the afternoon, we started to warp into a roll of yarn, which is used for weave pattern as samples shown. It was quite confusing that how to figure out how many times we should warp. Thanks to the tutor, I can finally get the numbers I should warp.

There was one more difficulty for me, I can't remember the correct route to warp, it is so complicated. However, after warping more, it became clear and much more easier than beginning. And my partner Francesca did a big favor for me, I was so thankful. I was very tired today, but I really enjoy learning technology for weaving. I'm looking forward to weave by loom tomorrow.
