Hello! Thank you for your interest in my new mailing list.
I’m so excited to share my new newsletter that will cover weaving techniques, weaving tips, free patterns, & more!
Don’t forget, anyone joining my mailing list receives my special free pattern, start to finish, of a weave I made just for you!
Happy Weaving!

As you probably know, Pantone releases color trends for different seasons. I loved the two color trends for 2019 so much that I decided to make some warp packs inspired by them! Continue Reading
I really like making these free weave pattern “weave alongs” as I call them. I think they are a great way to learn weaving techniques and also end up with a beautiful weave at the end. I’m especially excited about this off-center circular weave, because it gives the weave a really organic feel. Continue Reading
In the last post, I showed how to warp your loom so that you have an off-center middle. Don’t you just love the look of an off-center weave?! I feel like it gives the weave some personality and makes it more unique. Continue Reading

I can’t guarantee that you’ll get the same results, but it’s fun to experiment with and this will get those who want to try it started. Oh and also I should note, if you try these with a wool or other protein-based fiber the colors will be picked up much darker! This is for dyeing cotton which really rinses out when dyeing with Kool-aid. Continue Reading
