[Ek_fiber] Greetings and admin questions.

[Sarah Fiedler]

You're right, AEllin, in order to get this to reply to the list I had to
choose "reply to all" and delete your name individually.  I'll look at the
setup files and see if there's a switch set wrong.  I'm new to this and am
feeling my way through the admin stuff.  If I can't figure it out I'll ask
Robin Gallowglass, the generous gentle who set up and hosts the list for us.

That brings me to the question of co-administering.  Would anyone want to be
a co-admin for this list?

By way of introduction, I learned to knit and crochet when I was young but
learned to spin when I was in my late teens.  I had a wheel long before I
fell in with the SCA.  I didn't like weaving (the maths) but took a dyeing
class and adored it, years ago.

About 7 years ago my husband decided he missed renaissance dance and we
looked for the SCA to give him his dancing fix.  I re-discovered spinning,
with a hand spindle this time, and dyeing, and knitting....

Clearly I got here - but I had to go to the webpage to do it. Which is
fine, but generally I have found the Hit Reply option works better, and
I'm concerned that someone might be discouraged.

Also, when I tried to reply to the previous messages, my mail was set to
go directly to the writer, not the list. Now, on other lists I've known
individuals with whom this happens, so I assume it's the way they set up
their email, but since this happened with both Sarah and Elizabeth, I
wonder if it's the list? Sarah, can you make sure the "Reply-to" is the
list address? Otherwise we'll degenerate into private discussions
without quite realizing what happened...

So, my job in life seems to be to find the bugs. :-)

In the SCA... oh, yeah, right...

My persona is a 14th century Norwegian living in Bergen, a major port
city. I spin, which is how Sarah knows me. I was a weaver long before I
got involved in the SCA, and am starting to get back into that with the
use of a table loom (I no longer have my old floor loom.) I'm also
beginning to learn tablet weaving and fingerlooping, and seriously
looking into learning to use a warp weighted loom (though what wall
space I think I have for one is a good question...) I am also interested
in learning about dyeing.


I live in and am the Minister of Arts for the Crown Province of
Ostgardr. I specifically live in Whyt Whey - Manhattan. Like my persona
;-) I am a currently single woman living in an apartment in a major
city.  This means space and transportation are different issues for me
than for most.  (No, I'm not going to be running a woad vat...
Management wouldn't like it.)

I'm looking forward to meeting more people interested in fiber!


AEllin
