4 days ago by craftsanity I’m prepping looms and working on a weaving + knitting mashup. I’m teaching members of the local knitters guild how to weave tomorrow and want to show samples of how I combine knitting and weaving. This is eventually going to be something wearable. : ) #craftsanitylooms #knit #logcabin #mashup #weave #weaving #yarn #workshopprep #sofun #weavingandknitting
3 days ago by craftsanity Many thanks to the Greater Grand Rapids Knitting Guild for inviting me to teach at their retreat. We spent the day weaving cowls on CraftSanity Cowl Looms and followed that up with circular weaving. The knitters were a lovely group to work with and I enjoyed seeing them try on their finished cowls. What a fun day! Get in touch if you’re interested in taking a CraftSanity workshop with your guild, coworkers or friends. I can bring looms to you and have your group weaving in no time. : ) #craftsanitylooms #craftsanityworkshops #weavingworkshops #weavingclass #art #fiberart #weave #grandrapids #weaver #handmadeinmichigan

I really like making these and working on a 2”x3” loom is about all I have time for at this point in the semester. : ) #weavingloom #fiberart #weavingsupplies #fiber #weave #weaver #art #craftsanitylooms #bling #softbling #weaving #weaversofinstagram #necklaceloom #tapestry #necklace #handwoven #arttherapy #mentalyoga #chill #learntoweave #destress #weavingclass #tinyart
