OMG. J, my first/ and current weaving instructor, mentioned during last night’s workshop that Pendleton Woolen Mills is looking for a weaver with experience in Jacquard and design. I am SO applying for that position. I doubt I’ll get it, but it’s worth a shot. Weaving full-time, in Portland down the street from Powells and Knit/Purl? Oh, temptation.
Wish me luck. I’m filling out the application in just a mo’
Oh, I swatched this yarn for socks. 7 sts/inch on 2.5mm addis (rejoicing). I’m so pleased with myself right now :D
Maybe I’ll have CO the socks by tonight and have some more pix.
If you get the job we’ll have to hang out sometime! Powell’s isn’t that far from WCI!
i would be in such such big trouble if i worked that close to powells or a yummy yarn shop. it’s bad enough that i have the nypl next door. i’ve learned to work with the temptation i hope you do too! :) sending good vibes your way.
oh, i went to the yarn tree last week and uhm.. bought some fiber and a big hunking spindle. now i’m in big troubles.. and my mom gave me two cigar boxes … i’m in big big troubles…
