Oh boy, you had fun!! What is the difference between the akha spindle and the top-whorl spindle? Are there different fibers for which you'd pick one over the other?
You want to weave a yukata? That will be so cool! Do you need a full loom or something less? As I recall a 'tan' or bolt is only about an arm's length in width and Japanese kimono is specifically made to use the tan w/o much cutting being necessary.
Not sure if you're still into the horsy-thing but I've got a fanfic and some artwork going in my recent postings. :)

The baskets are gorgeous, too!
