    I feel the energy, I really need to set up a hoop house thing, did you do that from scratch? Or was it a kit or something?

    Loving your nines.

    I am starting to have mixed feeling about natural dyes, most of them really do fade so quickly.
    I have been sticking to substantive dyes like walnut and pom and I will dig up the madder this month. And of course indigo.

      It’s a kit. I think it’s this one: https://rhinoshelters.com/product/12w-x-24l-x-8h-round-style-greenhouse/. Maybe five years old now? The door zippers have been replaced. The covering wears out eventually. So it’s not really a long term solution but it’s working for us with some maintenance. We use internal low row covers too to get thru the winter. I love the look of indigo but find it too daunting to learn enough to use it. There’s so much goldenrod here, it’s hard to resist trying to capture it.

    I stitched so many counted cross stitches years ago, but yes, the regularity has become hard to take, even though it can be very functional in some applications

    the cordage inclusions are fascinating … have you ever couched cordage onto a larger piece of cloth? … the curly dock cloth with a darker cloth peeking out from below might make a worthy base
