Spinning a yarn

Here, for once, I'm planning ahead. Most of my weaving is done spontaneously, no planned design. So this is a departure. Little landscape, colors suggested, and there's roving in the colors I need.

In weaving terms, this drawing is called a cartoon, and it will be set up behind the warp as a guide. It's a golden rectangle, 5×8


Just have to spin it now. By the time I've got the new loom tensioner set up, I'll have enough yarn to work with.

At least, that's the plan.
