Note: Not the Fran who knits, but the Fran who weaves (and 3d prints)! Sorry to the other Fran, didn't know you were using this name before I picked it!
Using up some smaller bits of yarns I plyed

3 tries before getting a look I liked with these yarns (inherited with the big loom)

Somehow, my brain has flipped a switch and I've spent the past month writing instead of weaving. Almost done with a 100 page/38k word count story, taking a pause to go back to take another stab at the story the wife and I have been working on and off on since college. #adhdlife

Library book sale haul. No surprises :)

And whooops, finding out that apparently there is another Fran out there who knits who uses the same name I picked for here for their business. Not surprising, but now I feel bad... (and understand the confusion that's been happening!)\

Might need to change name on here somehow...

After a lot of guesswork and screwing up, I think I might know what I’m doing now? Ignoring the pattern helped.

Thrift store is why my living room is full of fabric. The prices were just too good not to…

After far too many mistakes, this weave is finally set up and ready to be started. … later.

About 20 different threads twisted together, a mix of cotton, viscose and rayon.

Playing around with markers today, these are the few that came out good. (The others I think I just overworked)

Filed under “weaves I want to redo “ it’s super short because I used the wrong gage of heddle/beater/thingi so the warp treads broke. Swapped out for the correct one to finish it off.

Twisting up thicker yarn from the thread thin spools I got earlier

Did I need more yarn? Nope. Could I resist $5 cones at the Makery? Also no. I DID limit myself to just 5, however…
