Whoa, how did that happen? I was making great progress on my projects. In fact, at one point, I only had four active WIPs on my Ravelry project page. Then I kept having those squirrel moments and I kept getting distracted by the Bright Shiny Objects (or in this case - BWO - Bright Woolly Objects). My LYS is having the great Weaving Class extravaganza and everyone seems to be jumping on the bandwagon. I showed you my progress after my first class, so I thought I should report in and show you more progress since then. The only problem - it's hard to see how much progress is actually happening. I'll try my best.
My scarf is moving right along. You can't really tell, but it's already about 4-5 feet long. It's all just rolled up on the bottom scroll and is hard to see in this picture.
From the back of the loom, you can see all the paper that I already unrolled. This is a much better indicator of how much I've already woven.
Here's my actual scarf all wound up on the scrolls. This is a fun craft and I'm really enjoying it. Stay tuned for my final class (getting the project OFF the loom) when I'll be able to show you my first woven FO. Won't that be cool?
The paper is used to keep the warping yarns straight. At least I think thats what I learned in the class. Hahaha! Im sure Id need more classes before I could do this completely on my own. It sure is fun, though. I like learning a new skill.

Where does the paper come in? What is its purpose?

Love your colors and how well they play with each other.
