Brunette mixed Balkan person with a buzzcut and glasses wearing a colorful ensemble: aqua and muted rainbow striped thin shawl blowing in the wind. Blues and purples small cross body bag with a rag rug like fabric (neater fabric strips), dark plum scoop neck top, large plum butterfly oyster shell necklace with turquoise heishi beads. Navy pants.

A Saori tunic with freeform overshot motifs, including freeform overshot motifs & twill & tabby stripes. It’s Trans Awareness Week.

Back view of me wearing a handwoven vest with textured art yarns with handspun coils, wavy flowy lilac/magenta vertical stripes 5+ centimeters wide, and aqua/light turquoise lens shaped spots. At top middle of the back is a large magenta outlined lilac heart with spirals forming the top two heart bumps. Black clothing underneath. Brunette buzz cut. I’m leaning on a wrought iron railing overlooking a condo building’s interior courtyard. Overcast gray sky.

A rainbow shawl that goes from royal purple (left end) to blue, green, yellow, orange, red, and fuchsia across its width. Fuzzy zigzag color transitions. Each side folded over to create a trapezoid on a red brick patio. Velvety texture. Long fine fringe. A yellow three leaf cluster lies on the dark royal purple fringe, a green three leaf cluster on the red.

A faux ikat chenille wrap I made from a single space dyed skein. I added mercerized cotton fringe to extend the length and the rainbow color spectrum 🌈 #FiberArt #TextileArt #FiberArtist #Weaving #HandWoven #LoomWeaving 🧶 #slowfashion #weavesky #bskyweavers #RigidHeddleWeaving #WeavingPatterns

It doesn’t look super loose. Maybe looser than you expected or want. I don’t know. It depends on what you want to use the fabric for.

How so?

Thanks!

Five scarf-like strips of handwoven fabric laid out side by side on a bed the long way: the outer and middle strips alternate rainbow spectrum sections with turquoise on navy geometric and sea life motifs. The two in between strips are turquoise blues and greens. White blanket underneath.

I’m making a colorful shawl by embroidering together Saori fabric strips with freeform overshot motifs. I wove two separate warps 🌀 #weaving #FiberArt #TextileArt #FiberArtist #Weaving #HandWoven #LoomWeaving 🧶 #slowfashion #weavesky #bskyweavers #RigidHeddleWeaving #OvershotWeaving #WeavingPatterns

Wide flat expanse of firm wet sand under a blue blue sky, Pacific Ocean to the left, facing north. Along the right side is the end edge of a thick sandstone mesa sloping down to the ground. Right lower foreground, a gray, uneven, sandy rock is exposed, a little above the sand. Beige fossils are lit up by slanted autumn afternoon sunlight coming from behind the scene to the south over the ocean. A long pointy shell cross section, little bubbly chambers on each side of a middle line jumps out at the viewer, surrounded by curled of roundish shells.

The story of my life

Great photo!

A long 18+ foot scarf width blue green fabric with different textures and yarn colors alternating in a non-regular way. It’s draped in a zigzag over a shoji screen, white and light wood. Six sections hanging down, two ends and two loops.

My latest Saori weaving is off the loom. Ocean intertidal zone inspired. I am combining it with another fabric to make a shawl 🌀 #FiberArt #TextileArt #FiberArtist #Weaving #HandWoven #LoomWeaving #overshot 🧶 #slowfashion #weavesky #bskyweavers #RigidHeddleWeaving #OvershotWeaving #WeavingPatterns

Thank you.

My wife and I are nodding in agreement.

Please add alt text to a post of this logo. I’m a small business owner and would like to share a post like this with a weaving patterns post but I only repost pics with alt text. #disabled

I keep thinking about ridiculous “high support needs” vs low. Ppl who don’t know me assume low support bc “gifted” (I reject label), what appears to be a successful career & community awards. But I’ve never maintained a job, SSDI $540. Financially dependent on parents/spouse, no friends, etc.

Blue on purple and purple on blue seahorses mirroring each other, the back and front of the same motif. Above is a photo collage of six tiny photos of me wearing colorful handwoven scarves and wraps: brunette with a buzz cut.

In 4th grade my teacher told me to become friends with my bully/abuser. This seems exactly ridiculous like that.

I do Saori weaving. I have two single bobbin shuttles and two double bobbin shuttles for maximum flexibility swapping out yarns.

A collage of two weaving photos and two beach photos. Blues and greens and wavy, uneven shapes and textures tie them together: clockwise from top left: 1 . a rectangular Mexican Talavera tile tray with lime green and purple florals holding 10 white shuttle bobbins with different matte and shiny yarns in emeralds, limes, jewel greens, and turquoise, light and navy blues, smooth and boucles. 2 . A rocky beach with large, intense spring green algae covered boulders under stormy gray skies. 3 . Scarf width fabric on a small loom with dashes of navy blue, light blue and emerald yarn and bumpy boucle soft muted turquoise yarn. 4 . Sunset clouds with yellow highlights against a turquoise blue sky, colors reflected in ocean water swash on sand with ocean to the horizon. Trippy.

Saori weaving inspired by the rocky coast, sea star dotted tide pools & stunning sunset skies of San Diego

It’s good to see some proof that billionaires and capitalists in general are using trans people and all DEIA work as as scapegoat bait to distract the public from their overrun of planetary boundaries
