I use the term “I measure with my heart” you should use that. It’s a common phrase.
Could have just went straight to the recipe no need to feed
You are absolutely right! I could have gone straight to the recipe, but then again, people who are just starting out might not realize that if their starter has been in the fridge for a while, it might need a little tlc.
Thank you so much for this! How often do you lanlize diapers? And does this process ruin the towel that you use to dry the diaper?
How often you lanolize depends on when the diaper cover needs it. Usually you will find that you start getting some leaking. That’s when you know. It definitely varies. You won’t ruin the towel as lanolin will wash out with warm water. Good luck!
ok, please do tell, what is your thread per inch and are you using a 6 dent per inch reed?
Yes, usually a 6 dent reed. The ends per dent could be anything from 3-5 depending on yarn used.
I am trying to see where you put the rod through the plain weave pic.....is the rod sitting betwen the knots and the reed? and th6en do you use those zip ties to connect thje two rods as the securing process holding the rods together?
You got it! That’s EXACTLY how I do it! ❤️
UR A BIT WEIRD
🤣 yep
U ACT AS IF U HAVE THE $$$ MONEY BUT WE DON'T.. LIKE I CAN AFFORD IT BUT YOU PROBABLY CAN'T.. I TOOK GREAT OFFENSE TO THAT. HONEY IF I HAD MONEY ISSUES I SURE WOYLDNT B LOOKING UP HOW TO MAKE.. I MAKE FOR GIFTS AND PURE ENJOYMENT!!! I THINK I KNOW HOW MUCH BEANS & VODKA IS.. AS FOR THE REST OF THE INGREDIENTS HELL I WOULDNT EVEN PUT A PRICE WHOOO CARES. I THINK I HAVE THE MONEY IT JUST WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE HAD YOU SAID OPPOSE TO ACTING LIKE THOSE WATCHING CANT AFFORD IT
I’m sorry that I offended you! I’m not sure what I said in this video, but I was probably complaining about the price of vodka. I’m a non drinker and am always shocked at the price of alcohol when I buy it for making extracts.
Can we please have a follow up video on this topic! Thank you! I have only done the 3 ingridient one i used Date syrup as the sweetner.
what size dutch oven is that?
Thx for sharing 😊 - question, i didn’t notice you doing a proof rise, the second one in the fridge “cold rise” for up to 48hrs. How does your crumb look without the proof rise?
No problem pre heating your enamel case iron?? I just bought one yesterday from Lodge, and instructions say you’re not supposed to heat without food in it? Maybe that’s just stove top tho?
I think the old fashioned flat or prefolded diaper, with pins and "rubber" pants worked WAY better.
Adding alcohol to your vanilla beans will be an extract, not a paste. Using alcohol, you leave the beans whole, then add your alcohol. Leave it in a jar for around 18 months to 2 years, and you get vanilla extract. Vanilla bean paste is opened lengthways, and then cut into 1" pieces. Water is added, along with sugar and corn syrup, then cooked on the stove for around 45 minutes on a relatively low heat. Remove it from the stove, let it cool, then blitz it for a couple of minutes. You then pass this through a sieve, then place it into a sterilised jar, and store it in the fridge, which will last you years. The vanilla bean that is left in the sieve can be dried in the oven and ground down to be used in cooking. Maybe people on TH-cam should know what they are doing before placing videos that are totally wrong. I suggest researching recipes before post videos in future.
Do you have a tutorial for sewing the carry Loop?
Is your tap water filtered? Just curious, European YT’er I watched says the chlorine has a reaction to the yeast. I’m curious, I’m new to baking fresh bread I am curious if you noticed a difference in how the bread rises? I have baked maybe 7 loaves so far and have only used filtered water becuz the tap water here in WA has fluoride and chlorine.
Oh wow... That is truly some gorgeous work. It's not often I'm jealous of a mannequin, but I wish I could be wrapped up in that, if only for the pictures.
Aren't we terrible. We just do not want to loose that fiber. Actually it's more fun to load and use them than to unload them. When you find out why the pirn fairies are on strike, will you let me know? They aren't doing mine either.
🤣
I can totally relate!
Do you have to let your bottles sit for 3 days after mixing the kombucha and berries?
Please don’t use tap water
My tap water is safe and filtered.
I always use tap water. I always stir with a metal spoon and I never separate salt from the yeast or levain. My bread is always fine.
@@SuperBC10 I’m talking about using tap water in general , for drinking, cooking etc. if you are not aware what is in tap water …, so choice is yours
I am perfectly happy with 4 shafts. I have a two shaft rug loom that I am bored to death with. There's only so much you can do with tie-ups and color study, both warp and weft. The 4 shaft is my darling. I also am not a huge fan with playing with projects. I design and weave tartans, and that makes me happy. I rarely do a scarf or a blanket of random fiber when I am pressed into a online community challenge, but honestly, I can't wait to get it off the loom and go back to what makes me happy. I'd like a 4 shaft rug loom in the room, instead of the two. I keep both dressed and working, one being a short break from the other. You've got to go with what you love, or you'll hate doing it.
I couldn’t agree more! Weave whatever makes you happy! ❤️
I sanded all my heddle rods with fine grit sandpaper and then lightly oiled - game changer. (my rods are 100 years old and the metal heddles are original)
Oh I love that!!!
If you make a slurry with oil the xanthan will not clump
Thanks for the tip!
Why are you using it in measurements of grams and not cups or metric system. New so I’m genuinely curious, thank you.
Grams are metric. I just find it easier. As a Canadian I use both imperial and metric.
Stunning warp, can’t wait to see how it weaves up!
Thank you! I have finished photos! Thanks for the reminder! This has probably been the busiest season we have ever had in the studio and I haven’t had much time for recording, but you are inspiring me to get something up! At least a follow up to this video! ❤️
@ congrats on such a busy time, i can see why - your work is incredible! No pressure on posting but it is always a delight to see your work. I’m glad you’re staying active on here as you’re very inspiring
Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching! 🥰
What a great studio space! Oh, you make me want to go further into this weaving journey like you wouldn't believe. Alas time and money both being what they are, limiting, my journey will be long and joyful...thank you for showing me what can be...small steps to big dreams :)
I am glad my studio can inspire you! ❤️
I love thos colorway! It's so gorgeous!
It is a lovely combo!
So beautiful ! The colors and texture...glorious!
Thank you! I really love how this turned out.
My mother did not understood the temperature, because Rebecca is probably americain, and skips both the hundreds, and the farnheit, and the TH-cam IA trying to generate the subs does not understand anything. => 430°F = 221°C.
I’m not American! Sorry for the confusion. I’m Canadian.
Wow!! This will knit up stunningly
Thank you! I will actually be weaving this yarn! ❤️
how I learned to love front to back warping of my loom!
If one or two threads become out of order, it doesn’t really matter in the long run, right? At what point would it begin to mess with tensioning/tangling?
That’s correct! Unless you have a colour order that you need to follow. I have pulled a selvage thread to fill in a missed heddle almost 10” away without issue.
@@Rebecca.RobbinsThanks, Rebecca! I’ve agonized over the cross for too long!
Wow, you're super organized and detail/production-oriented
Thank you. That is very true!
"Half of weaving is troubleshooting". Indeed, my friend. Great job in the resolution finding and love your determination!
I repeat that quote all of the time. I whole heartedly believe it too! Weaving really requires good problem solving skills!
How can I learn this beautiful art Could you share your learning journey with us ❤
Thank you for this! The beans I purchased are in 2 oz package so very easy to follow recipe. 💕
You are so welcome!
@@Rebecca.Robbins made yesterday! Looks and smells great! Thanks again! ❤️
You'd change your taste in the three ingredient paste if you took out all the caviar though.
You are probably right!
What is the container that contain the yarn after scouring please 😅 ?
I went from scouring in my sink, then into my spinner to spin out most of the water, then into a tote full of soda ash water.
That crazy music really helps me understand what you are saying
Sorry. 😞
Love it! A metal cookie cutter works best, with the next bigger size cutter to press/trim the excess chocolate.
Great tip!
A lot of fungal issues with plants and tress can be treated with hydrogen peroxide. It doesn't hurt the plant and the fruit with still be safe to eat.
Thanks for that tip!
I am so curious about avl, and this was quite enlightening; I am drooling! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
at 12:43 you seem to be putting the yarn into a pot over heat, but do not mention it in the commentary. Does it need fixing in heat? if so, was it the tencel or the wool?
Wish i can feel the texture cause it looks yummy
It IS yummy!!!
Sooo pretttyyyyy
Thank you so much! ❤️
The pre-marked tapes are brilliant! ❤
❤️
Do you count heddles or just start in the middle of the draft?
I know how many heddles I used on the last warp and adjust them as needed before I start a new warp. I thread from my right.
This is helpful!
I'm glad!
I have a 75lb special needs toddler. Would this work for the bigger kiddos too? I'm having trouble finding diapers in his size
I can’t see why not! You can always make them bigger if needed! If you haven’t seen my video on making wool diaper covers, you should check that one out as well.
