a woven band with alternating dragon heads is spread out in a spiral atop the 4 cones of cottolin in colors ockre, green, sky blue and purple that were used to weave the band. a woollen tablerunner with a yellow rosepath serves as artsyfartsy bokeh.

a closeup of the same band on the yarn cones. weaving people will detect in the border of the band that i didn‘t read the pattern properly and thought i had to switch the weaving direction after every dragon. alas i did not have to… but did *faceplantemoji

finally suppressed my startitis & finished a tablet woven band with a twisted dragon head motif: it’s 2m long & 2cm wide. i used 24 tablets and a pattern on twistedthreads.org (ID: DqprpjBeb6KcX8xLi). it only took a few months! 🫠🧶🤓 🥳 #tabletweaving #bandweaving #cardweaving #vennecottolin #inkleloom

A section of an in-progress, yellow, white and ochre handwoven band lies atop a checkered page with its chart drawn on it. The design depicts a narrow vine woven over 8 pattern threads. The indigo dyed weft thread is wound like a butterfly and lies to the right of the band.

one thread at a time for full immersion. #bandweaving #backstrapweaving #peruvianweaving #vennecottolin #slowcrafting
