Hand-dyed warp going on…..

Good afternoon to one and all..... hope all goes well and you're ready for the storm tomorrow! As most of you likely know, I've added yet another obsession over the last few years as I seem to have dove head first into weaving. It certainly was good to have something else to keep me occupied during the Covid lockdowns in between jewelry making adventures...... especially as I had some trouble getting jewelry making supplies!!! Spent some time the last few days working on my "new to me" Leclerc Colonial loom (this is loom number three if anyone is keeping count.... yep head first!). I'm still trying to tweek the loom setup to get it weaving nicely so that I need to use fewer words while using it ;-) Of course, I had to try out a new weave structure as well! Whatcha think so far? Take care and please stay safe in the storm.....

It's important to summon the creature out of the warp before you start to weave

Obviously the key reason to get into weaving is the near limitless pride flag potential.
This is 8 metres of trans warp threaded for 5 different twills. Winding the warp went SO MUCH BETTER than my first project a couple weeks ago and I am especially proud of how smoothly my warp chains unravelled.
With the trans yarns I also ordered sample cards for a couple different yarn companies so that I can compose some rainbow flag variants.

yk when you see someone share a finished handmade item that they clearly spent a lot of time and money on and it's just. The absolute tackiest thing you have seen in your life. And then you ask yourself why someone would waste all those resources on such an eyesore.
(no, of course you can't relate to that because you're a much nicer person than me)
In any case.
BEHOLD!
A wool coat!
The top fabric is handwoven and handspun, the whole thing is sewn by hand, too.
Leftovers. Barely anything, all things considered, which is very satisfying.
This thing took me well over 3 years to make, on and off. And now I'm done.
Thank you for your attention.
#carry on XD#i hope y'all realize that when I say tacky it's with nothing but love in my heart#yes it's ugly. that's the whole point.#everyone should have an item in their wardrobe that will get Looks and raised eyebrows#it's good for you#anyway can't believe I'm done! this is a huge boost to my crafting hubris I CAN DO ANYTHING#wizard bathrobe adventures#handweaving#handspinning#hand sewing#look what i made#crafts#overall I'm happy with it even though there's. things that aren't ideal#the pockets are set a bit too low#and i should have made it a tiny bit longer not much but maybe like 5cm#anyway#overall it's a nice coat i think#Now That's What I Call Slow Fashion

Getting another batch of the rainbow fabric worked on as of 1/5/24, going to use this batch to make a bunch more of the little zipper bags and some new *experiments* I'm hoping turn out cool!
Have some loom ASMR!
If you have weaving questions, leave them on this post and I'll do a video at the loom answering the best I can!

So, exactly one year ago I did this:
It's a fully hand woven pride flag, and this time I went further than ever with all the work. I studied how to weave, I built the weaving loom, and only then wove the flag, which took about two full weeks. It's far from perfect, but I am so proud (pun fully intended) of how it turned out.
It's made with and of love (the rest is 100% cotton 😌); not meant for me, but ended up with me in the end
It will always be a dear memory, with all that it entails
And now, one year from there, I am so so happy ❤️
Wips:

Took a weaving class last weekend and learned about shadow weave! It's a color-and-weave technique that creates patterns without using long floats. This is four colors: the warp is what you see in the fringe (lemongrass and like cobalt blue) and the weft is a burnt red and dark seaweed teal.
The shine from the tencel fiber and the shadow weave structure have an iridescent effect that I absolutely love. And the fabric feels lustrous but sturdy because it's mostly plain weave! I will say I did not love working with tencel, but I'm curious about other very shiny fibers now.
Here is my color sampling and some progress photos:
Now I have this 76in scarf made of a fiber that won't keep me warm. I'll absolutely never wear something like this. I'm thinking about cutting it and sewing it into drawstring bags. Maybe add some beaded fringe? Idk, I'll take other people's ideas.

Yesterday I got the big wool blankets warped up on the loom at the studio. It looks like Lisa Frank barf and I love it. It took almost the whole weekend to warp and I only got about 20 minutes of actual weaving in before I had to leave. I wanna go back!!

I finally finished weaving my scarf! This is the first thing that I've woven specifically for myself (vs for someone else, or a test piece). It's 6' × 15", and 36 EPI. (It was supposed to also be 36 PPI, but ended up closer to 30.) The pattern is a 3/1 1/3 block twill. The warp is white and the weft a light grey. Both are 16/2 bamboo from M. Brassard.
At some angles, the alternating light/dark (or light and slightly less light) squares are visible, while at others the diamond pattern formed by the twills dominates instead.
I'm estimating that it took 2-3 hours to wind, a similar amount of time to thread, and then 6 hours to actually weave. And then it took 3 hours to twist the fringe.

New Loom!
I posted this on Instagram but I just realized I didn't post it here!
Look at my new friend!
This giant (for me) project is actually the second I've done on my new loom:
Here's the first, avert your eyes from my embarrassing threading error:
