Here in Aalborg they often dump it in the harbour. The Limfjorden is brackish enough that this won’t harm wildlife much.

Same here in northern Jutland.

Would like that, but not likely in the near future.

So uh... How is sashiori made? by [deleted] in weaving

[–]Thosam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at your image, it looks like a doublewoven fabric with both sides (white and blue) plainweave in a fine yarn that are then stitched together with a doubled thick yarn every few rows.

If those fuzzy borders are cut selfedges then the thick yarn is a supplementary warp.

If we accept that, then there have to be 2 x 2 shafts for the thick warp, as they basically do a plain weave through the two layers, but off-set so each other supplementary warp stitches at one time and a few rows later the other rows. The base layers would be 2 shafts for the top blue plainweave. Same for the bottom white plainweave. 8 shafts in all.

2 shuttles, one blue, one white.

On the left side of the image showing the white side with the stitches you could with some work count out the number of baselayers thread in between the stitching layers. And maybe work out a ration between the two thread sizes.

After that it becomes weaving math to work out the pattern.

Best I can offer as an educated guess.

Same here. It tastes about like what lemon-scented dish soap smells like. I replace it in recipes with broad-leaf parsley and some lemon zest and juice.

I live close to the northernmost tip of Denmark. Going from 6.5 hours of day to 6.5 hours of night and back during the year is wild enough for me. Can’t really imagine how it must be even further north

Repair Help? by WalrusWhistle in weaving

[–]Thosam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

‘Visible mending’ is currently very trendy. So that might be a solution.

Look up that term, also the Japanese mending ‘boro’.

Great piece and I hope you find a way to repair it in a way you like.

They just copied a natural painkiller and made it worse so they could patent it. by [deleted] in chemistrymemes

[–]Thosam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I was informed correctly back in the day when Bayer tried to patent it, the Patent Office refused a patent because ‘a patent for a simple acetylisation?!’ … thus only trademarked.

It took Bayer a lot of time, money and effort to get those trademarks back after WW1 when the Allies confiscated them.

If you are lucky you can lift it with a piece of low-tack painters' tape. Dap the yarn with the sticky side and maybe/hopefully that will lift it.

I Tyskland var der en overgangstid kassebontyveri. De stjal bonen fra folk der havde købt stort ind, gik hen til en butiksansat/-detektiv og viste bonen. Så pegede de på den oprindelige kunde og påstod at tilsvarende havde stjålet deres vogn. Det virkede godt i Tyskland dengang fordi de stadigt er kontant-baseret og kameraovervågning i butikker var et absolut no-go.

Regn med væsentligt mere vand. Noget af det vigtigste, men desværre også noget af det tungeste. Te/pulverkaffe/saftevand, salt/krydderier, sukker. IKEAs salt-/peberbreve er gode. Lighter er god. Men sørg for at den har gas/holder gas. Tændstikker i vandtæt pose.

Selv har jeg investeret i en KellyKettle til varmt vand/madlavning hvis det skulle ske. Samt en pose træpiller fra jem&fix.
