brand new weavin blog

Oh Hello! I am so excited about this new blog that I think I will even use correct capitalization! I learned how to weave in 2003 and have been weaving off and on ever since, with intensity since 2007. I have woven on several types of looms and love it all. I'm not exactly sure what captures me most about this craft, but some of the words that come to mind are mathematical, womanliness and psychedelic. I enjoy repetition, ritual, symbols, color, and story-telling, and especially when they come together to make meaning, or as it's often called, art. I am so grateful to all of my teachers and weaving peers who have been inspiring and industrious women, each of them, and to the two exemplary men among them! Ive never met a weaver who didn't have some curious warp about them, and a sense of humor to match. I am excited to expand my circle of weavers as I enter the world of weaving online and with it, the world of insomnia. Though I have done several weaving projects, I am going to start at the present, and begin cataloging my work as it is now. I could spend the rest of my life rehashing the past and putting off my current projects, but I want to make this an active, up-to-date resource. My intention is to create a little space in which you might gleam a pick of inspiration, take a satisfying eye-bath in some color pools, commiserate with a fellow craftsperson, or, if you are my mother, read, "Hi Mom!" Thank you for reading. I hope that this space will grow as I do in my craft.
