Yesterday, we were able to, in spite of the treacherous intrigue mixed up by various participants in the Clone Wars …
… and all sorts of plot twists that kept bubbling to surface,
… (even though a secure perimeter had to be established and reinforcements had to be brought in) …
… get quite a lot of wool dyed. Of course, defending and keeping one’s stash of wool is a full time job that needs the big guns.
Here’s hoping that your wool will be safe through out all of 2010!

What a nice stack of wool—-as fun was had by all. Hope the space ship doesn’t take it all! LC

You even had Wookiees, or Ewoks…I can’t make out the true creature! Looks like a fabulous time. You must be “da bomb” as a grandfather. Happy New Year!

Susan – Wookies, particularly in times of peace, have a long tradition of being fiber artists. While both male and female Wookies make various types of rugs, their females are known, particularly, for their fine spun yarns (combed from recycled Wookie hair that collects in hair brushes – obviously a constant source) which are woven into an unusually durable flannel weight fabric used for a variety of things in Wookie culture but, eventually, ends up in their floor rugs. Given their commitment to the fiber arts, it is no surprise that Wookies would be some of the first to enter the fight for the liberation of dyers in the Clone Dye Wars. GRS
