freeform crochet bear mittens

size variable, cotton and wool yarn, 2012


made while traveling around western europe, that thumb and that ribbing were quite stress-inducing, but i think I get it now. In a jetlag haze, I began freeform purple-toed butcher string socks and lining a new jacket, and I start a ceramic sculpture class today! here's to 2012!

tapestry sampler

size, wool tapestry on linen warp, 2011

Finally got to photographing this, it's from the tapestry class I took this past spring. Pretty inspiring, thinking of turning the headboard from the bed frame I just got into a monster rug loom, new frame from the complete overhaul of my bedroom space, hence the perfectly timed discovery of my most recent post of a selection from stoner by john williams by my visiting lover. I have an oppositionally tiny loom that I just warped, too. It's prob 5 or 6in by 5 or 6in, "Jiffy Loom" from the East Bay Depot for Creative Reuse. Excited to play around with that.

Also, this article about my friend Adrienne Skye Roberts is pretty amazing and inspiring, as is most all of her work.
