Love Like Salt

This bright pink might be my favorite color. It’s UV reactive to boot!
Life right now feels very real. It’s messy and big and making me face realities I don’t want to face, but this weaving makes me feel protected and ready to take my soul deeper into the forest where we witness the impossible.

I am working on a simple stash busting project with a Summer and Winter border. Thinking about making this a pattern, but not too sure. What do you think?

Some weaves are a journey.
This started as white silk yarn and cotton top. I dyed the silk, spun the cotton and wove it.
Then I decided I wasn’t happy with it, so I dyed it dark green and made a custom shawl pin. All in all I am happy!

Something has felt missing in my weaving work and it was a shawl pin. I’ve never found a pin that works with my shawls. So I started whittling and crocheting and lo and behold: a shawl pin is born! Now I have to make one for each of my shawls.
