The Work of Worms
I was happy to find Michael Cook's site Wormspit.com
As Michael writes, it is about silkworms, silkmoths & silk. Check out Michael's methods for dyeing silk, reeling, etc.
Michael has also generously hosted two small vintage publications about silk and allows you to download the pdf's of them.
It is a delight to see a textile artist who is passionate about their chosen field.

A Good Idea?
In her blog Abby’s Yarns! Abby Franquemont has set herself a goal of making March a "finishathon". Should I think about dashing about for a set period of time and try to finish up a bunch of stuff?
It might be a good idea, but it might just be VERY depressing.
Abby has some gorgeous yarns on her blog that concentrates on knitting, spinning and other good stuff. I especially like her lace knitting (one of my favorites).

Weaving is the least of it
Jack Schmidling's fiber crafts page makes me want to cheer for this guy for sticking to his journey. Thanks to the Calontir Group for pointing out his site.
