New home for the weaving loom.

I am not a fan of belongings. I believe that people with less stuff tend to be happier, as long of course as they have what is essential to live the life they want with dignity. But I have managed to have way more things than I could carry in one luggage... Way more... One of them, and probably my most precious and biggest belonging is my beloved weaving loom! It introduces me into a magic world each and every time (unless I get stuck and I forget everything I said above and dream of a new perfect one, till I get calmer and become again its loyal servant :)

You can imagine that the biggest challenge during our relocation from Crete to Nafplio was the transportation of the loom! That was not its first move, but I hope the next one will not be too soon. You can see it standing strong and you don't imagine how fragile and sensitive this beast can be.

The most delicate parts traveled with me by car. The biggest ones and the most stable traveled by the transportation company and we reunited after 3 long weeks.

When I bought the loom and it came from Athens to the island of Crete, I had no idea how to put it together. Somehow I managed to do it, so I was confident that now I could easily do it since that would be its third move, but I also knew how difficult it can be mostly because the woods are old and many screws are either stuck or rusty. I couldn't have done it without the help of @fotostef who has slowly become a weaving loom expert :)

_{What goes where? 😕}

The light in the new place is beautiful! I had missed that so much in the previous house. And although the new place is very small, there are stuff that suit very well with the loom, like the very high ceiling and the old-fashioned floor. And I have never worked again with such beautiful light.

The setting up is one part and putting on the warp another. You can admire @fotostef concentrating on every move. Definitely a hard job and a good meditation. No mistake is forgiven at this stage and we did none :)

I know it is not a very creative in the means of making something post, but I also know that the members of this community will understand deeply how important the moment you reconnect with your yarns is :)

The whole process took about two days and then I was ready to start. Or at least I thought I was ready to start. Some things hadn't gone that well and a damage had been done during the transportation. I had a few hard days ahead, but now all is much better although not perfect. Anyway, I was never an admirer of perfection :)

All the pictures and the words are mine, apart from the pictures that I am in and are taken by @fotostef, but I did the editing so don't blame him :))

If you would like to know more about me this is my introduction post.
