This is a saori weaving that I did yesterday. I took the class at Knotty by Nature (see link on side bar) This is the first creative textile endeavour I have done since making lizard costumes awhile back. (more on that later). Saori weaving is a Japanese style of weaving done on a special saori loom. You can weave in whatever elements you like. Here I shaped some pink wool into a heart and wove it in. The instructor says that Saori weaving reflects your inner self at the moment you are weaving. Was I feeling love? But then what of the other parts of weaving? Dare to interpret?
