Christmas Eve weaving

Most of the day has been spent getting ready for the arrival of the Washington part of the family - we are hosting the gathering this year, our last here in Washington as it turns out.  However the cleaning and tidying went pretty quickly so I was able to put in a little bit of time on the weaving.

2/3 of the way through the 1st placemat

It is certainly going well and the slight difference in the yarn, the last placemats were bleached, these ones are half-bleached (the linen is from the Yarn Barn of Kansas) so the 'pattern' shows a little bit better, although that will only really be evident once they are finished and washed, ironed.

Tomorrow, Christmas Day here, will be a quiet day for us.  Great for some more serious weaving :-)
