hat that says earthling for a coworker. i initially starting knitting this hat for myself but it didn’t fit how i liked and i wasn’t huge on the scratchy wool. coworker who doesn’t care about scratchy wool said he would wear it. i asked him if he wanted words on it and he has a work shirt that says earthling so this was done to match. i will be pleased to see another person wearing my work
I’ve attempted many rag rugs and this is the first to survive my criticism in over 10 years. littlest pet shop for scale. this is going to be the mat to the backdoor off the kitchen 💚
My treacherous eye, finished by me in 2026. Warp is cotton seine twine, weft is wool. Measures 23” x 21.5”.
This is woven from a reference photo of my right eye, which is, for both complicated and very straightforward reasons (eye don’t work good), frequently hidden under an eyepatch. I wove a large tapestry hoping that the time taken to hand weave it would be time I could use to digest the reality of my eye (eye don’t work good). I do not think that worked—but I did start to enjoy the grossness of it a bit as I wove the inside lid.
I’m going to enter this in some calls for art if I find the right one, maybe I will get to show it off in person someday.
ID: TikTok comment that reads "I would also like to remind us all that even if the fiber arts community didn't contribute to technological advancements: they kept millennia of humans warm. We live and breathe because someone once upon a time made someone else clothes. You have ancestors for whom a woven garment made the difference between freezing and seeing tomorrow or kept their skin protected from diseases spread by bugs. Textiles give protection from the sun, the elements, parasites and pests. It is never insignificant in any incarnation." end ID
