I find it's a little more stretchy than your typical chain, just FYI, if you need to measure out the item you are making yourself. I use it as a base for bracelets I make and when I did the chain, I would do 50-55 stitches, now I do 40-45.

Have you tried doing a foundation single crochet row? It lets you make the first row at the same time as you make the chain.

They are gorgeous! Would you be open to commissions in the future? I would like to get a wood shuttle with a hook, but none of the ones you have currently call to me.

The link works on my side. Hopefully the other commenter manages to get in.

This is the most compact inkle loom I've ever seen!

Yeah, that's more like hardinger than tatting at best.

Hey! I know, I'm so quiet on here. But I've been working away on new things for Pride. In the meantime, I thought I would put up a list of the events I'll be at in the next few weeks.

Hope I see you soon!

BUY MY BOOK! RELEASES JUNE 25!!

I remember reading an article years ago that pointed out all the post apocalyptic movies have vehicles and trying to find gas as if everyone has forgotten bikes exist?

Living in larger groups is one of the reasons science thinks we outlived our Neanderthal cousins, too.

You know, I hadn't thought of that but I do collect reference books because it's easier for me to find something in a physical copy versus digital. Dual purpose!

Thank you! I appreciate it! 💜

That would be lovely, thank you!

Do you have a rough guess on how long the warp is? 👀

I wonder how long it warps.

I think the answer is simply "more"

Why share AI gen stuff when you can share the cool things people actually make like the woman who made a replica of herself and her dog?

My favorite Japanese place closed around 2012? I found out two days after my birthday. T_T They were always so kind to me, even letting me pay double next time when their debit was down once.

Check out this book by my friend Arwen with cover art by my other friend @aprilmayjune.bsky.social !

I find the weaving has gone fairly quick for me, but I've seen l still only done fairly simple designs with everything going the same direction. I can't wait to tackle something more complicated though!

Boy, do warps take forever! I think it took me around three hours to do 70" on 24 cards the other night

Ah, good to know! Thank you!

Oh, I love it!

If you're interested in shuttle tatting, I learned from @sparrowspite.com 's lessons.

This is so neat! I've been thinking of building something like this in wood.

Imriel's hand is visible with a tablet woven trans flag colored band around their wrist. They are pinching the ends together with their fingers to show the design.

An inklette loom warped with a rainbow of threads sitting on a coffee table. The warp is run through cards for tablet weaving.

I finished up the first five wristlets for Pride and set up the loom for the rainbow ones. 24 cards is pushing the limit of the little inklette I have. Now I just need to order some hardware.

Good luck! Let us know how it goes!
