I sat down and wove about six and half inches, or seven repeats on my scarf! It felt great to be holding shuttle again. I haven't lost my technique thankfully .
My progress today is shown here from the gold marker and up! I went slow and was careful not to twist my leg or over reach the treadles. Its a small, but big first start!
I'm six weeks post operative now and this time with my last hip replacement I was still hobbling around on crutches. Things have gone much better this time round. I started weaving last time at about three months after surgery.
I'll see how I feel tomorrow and not overdo such things too much. I have been using my spinning wheel in the evenings so maybe that's helped?
I know someone else who is happy I'm back in the studio! Call grabbed a toy and waited patiently for the game of "you cover my eyes and throw it.... then I track it down, and bring it back ten seconds later."
Its a start!

Whoo Hoo!!!
So glad you're recovery is going good and quickly.
Such good news! Calli certainly looks lovely in a recent clip I'd guess but that scarf is positively perfect. I love everything about it. I bet your looms are happy to see you too! :)
Huzzah! Wonderful news on your speedy recovery!
Yay indeed! So glad you're feeling better and apparently healing well!
Yey, back to what's important. Continue with the speedy recovery (though it probably doesn't seem fast to you).
So very happy you are back at the loom and weaving again!
Yippee! I'm so happy for you!
That is truly a beautiful scarf! Glad to read that you are on the mend. (Aren't our pets wonderful?) Be well, Kate K.
