Handwoven Melodies

Giving myself time today to rest. Playing with an idea for a colorway #hwpo #handwovenmelodies #weaving #Handwoven #loom #handdyedyarn #handdyed #cotton #cottonyarn #playingwithcolors

We went out hunting eggs today. Wishing you happy celebrations of whatever you enjoy today!

Rechecking for errors and trying out some weft samples. I always suggest picking a weft that flatters your favorite part of the warp. What's your favorite weft? #handwovenmelodies #handwoventextiles #woventextiles #loomtowrap @loomtowrap #babywearing #babywrap #shawl #cowl #wearableart

Fixed it. Can't wait for better lighting and sampling tomorrow! #handwovenmelodies #handwoven #babywrap #wrap #babywearing

After some medical intervention in finally starting to feel like myself again. And that means weaving progress! Yahoo! This piece is gorgeous hand dyed cotton/linen in Indigo brings out the browns in the warp #weaver #disabledartist #mssucks #Handwoven #HandwovenMelodies #shawl #handdyedyarn

Enjoying the details that shine through this hand dyed Rose weft! The subtle interplay of browns and greys with flecks of light grey is so lovely. I'm really excited to see how this one looks as a wrap!!

And now for something completely different! I can't talk enough about how much weft (the thread that goes from left to right in this image) impacts the look of a piece. This is hand dyed black with tiny bits of slightly lighter dashes. This is the custom momma's piece. She wanted the warp (the thread running from top to bottom in this image) to shine through). The draft (pattern) looks amazing! Oh and she picked rose viscose weft so the piece feels heavenly #HandwovenMelodies #babywrap #babywearing #loomtowrap #weaversofinstagram #bipocartists #metismaker #art #fiberartist #multiplesclerosisdoesntdefineme #disabled #aintnothinggonnabreakmystride

It's weaving time! Now presenting teal and grey hand dyed tencel weft!

They can hold sewing notions, knitting projects, fresh bread (keep the crust crisp and the inside soft), you can use them to carry fruits and veggies, or even to wrap gifts!! At only $35 they're a great deal! *Updated* striped bag has sold #HandwovenMelodies #breadbag #wip #bipocartists #indigenousbusiness #indigenousart #metis #disabledartist #shoplocal
