A wonderful invention, the derailleur....
Knitting on.....
Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations.
The main site for Archive Team is at archiveteam.org and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs.
This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work.
Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find.
The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures.

Rant whilst waiting...now getting on with life
Knitting on.....
Some judicious cutting
Success...I can live with that, knowing as well that it has been a step to the print that I like!
Starting again from scratch was the best decision for this design.
A decided improvement..now to wait for the half dozen prints to dry....
Then I looked at my study/workroom/fleabay and Etsy despatch department/ library.....
It needs a sortout..again!!
The weather has degenerated again to high winds and rain....looks like it will be tidy study day.. maybe...or there is another print to do.....
Gradually pruning the tree!
I have found that photographing the block then putting a black and white filter on the image has helped.. slowly but surely....you can take off more, but replacing a cut is possible but difficult!!
But it is getting there slowly.... although it might be a back to square one job and start again.
