Youtube decided I would like some sumo which is a weird guess but correct. Now I am a sport fan. Just the one.

I wove this while visiting home to pull myself out of a doom spiral. White 10/2 cotton and hand-dyed blue merino wool.
White scarf with blue overshot pattern "periwinkle". Pattern is slightly different on each side. I got fancy and added a little edge detail with the blue yarn before the white fringe. Fringe is chunky because I hate twisting fringe so I did it in big groups. Close up of overshot pattern, blue pattern yarn on white tabby. It's supposed to look like flowers but I only really see diamonds. Close up of overshot pattern, blue pattern yarn on white tabby. It's supposed to look like flowers but I only really see diamonds. Side 2!

Made these! 5/2 cotton. It's my first time trying shadow weave.
Three scarves made from the same warp (one is too short to be a proper scarf but it's the thought that counts). Shadow weave patterns made from alternating teal and light green yarn. The short one has light green replaced with pink in the weft for a more purple impression. Wavy woven pattern made from alternating teal and light green yarn. The differences in structure through the pattern make for interesting regions of tighter and looser weave. Wavy woven pattern made from alternating teal and light green yarn. The differences in structure through the pattern make for interesting regions of tighter and looser weave. This one is quite a bit simpler than the first one and produced a simpler wave pattern. The same warp with a different (pink) weft and different treadling pattern makes for a bit of a zig zag. This was the remainder of the warp and I was sick of teal and green and tired of complicated treadling.

I made these! 5/2 cotton + rayon with pattern in white handspun wool somebody gave me and green/blue/purple wool somebody else gave me
Two woven table runners with repeating rectangular designs made with white or blueish wool on the same green, pink, yellow and brown warp.

My roommate forgot a tomato underneath an onion for two weeks (somehow???) and it shriveled and spewed foul liquid all over the counter and started to mold. This is what happens when I leave to visit family. I was greeted by a noxious cloud that she had just been... living in...

Can I eat this? Awfully late in the season for mushrooms so I'm very excited.
Felted wool mushroom with a white stipe and veil and a red cap with white spots, proudly held up for inspection like a real foraged mushroom. It's intended to resemble Amanita muscaria Underside of a felted wool mushroom made to resemble Amanita muscaria. The picture angle mimics pictures of real mushrooms taken for purposes of identification. Amusingly, this type of mushroom should have gills but the felted version has none.

My dad found a table loom for me! But no shuttle. I want to start a project before my vacation ends but I don't think it's gonna happen...

I tried making some shoelaces on an inkle loom. First draft laces are a bit too fat. Also tried a tapestry class and made... something.
Woven band, light blue with a center dark blue stripe and light green dots. Approximately the dimensions of two very fat shoelaces. Close up woven band, light blue, slightly darker blue, dark blue stripes with center light green dots. Abstract woven tapestry made from purple variegated wool with fuzzy gold shapes, lines, wrapped segments. A few lines of light blue also. Ends are tied white cotton.

Spearheaded effort to clean out the shared break room fridge at the lab today. Discovered a moldy alien landscape in a catering tray, mysterious orbs, pre-pandemic yogurts. Feeding frenzy for microbiologists. This should go on my resume.

I tried an inkle loom but my shrinkage expectations were off so it's unreasonably long and skinny for a belt
Messily coiled woven strap ~8ft long 1.5in wide. Orange, dark green and seafoam pattern with stripes and spots of color. Braided end. On horrible taupe carpet. Project in-progress on inkle loom. Small kebab skewers were used to start the weave and it looks a bit silly.

I don't think spinning is for me, but the pound of wool from my intro class is taunting me so I can't stop

I wove something and then made it a very short friend for emotional support like a race horse with a goat
Dark scarf with rainbow warp and black weft woven with a diamond twill pattern, shown on terrible taupe carpet Detail shot of scarf showing black diamond pattern over rainbow warp Detail shot of white herringbone over rainbow warp. Loose thread ends are visible where I changed the weft thread Light woven piece too short to be called a scarf with rainbow warp and white weft in a herringbone pattern. Long rainbow fringe. Terrible taupe carpet beneath.

I made another scarf and with the leftover warp I created its evil twin
Scarf with blue and black stripes and a black diamond twill pattern Detail shot of blue and black striped scarf showing black diamond twill pattern and twisted fringe with black hem stitching Alternate version of black and blue striped scarf using a white weft yarn so the white diamond twill pattern dominates the design, laying over black and blue version for comparison

I don't post much but I made a scarf
