Bluesky esoteric book challenge. A book per day (it's okay to skip days if you're really busy), in no particular order, until you've shared ALL of the best occult books in your personal library. No explanations, no reviews, just covers! #Books #Esoteric #Occult #esotericbookchallenge

First towel done, second started. Same tie-up, different treadling. Alas, it's back to work tomorrow. #handwoven #fiberart #weaving #teatowels

A Big #HandsOff from a little mountain town, #Truckee, CA.

Bad actor brown warp threads cut off, still some minor tension issues, but manageable. I like the rose weft, and glad to have kept a slight bit of brown in the warp. #Weaving #handwoven #painfulLearningExperiences #warpWoes

MO Boudreaux is not amused #catsky

#Weaving hive mind I've got a question for you. I just recently purchased the sectional beam kit for my (recently purchased Schact Baby Wolf. I am used to 1" sections, but these are 2" sections. Ran into some complications but now I'm in a real (literal) bind. 1/3

Well, it seems this first #towel is going to be a color gamp - yellow weft in prior picture, purple, and lavender in this one. #Weaving #handwoven #fiberart #floorloom

I think we're finally there. Had to fix a couple of slaying errors, and the hem is as close to plain weave as this threading goes. 8/2 cotton, 24 epi x 10 yards for towels. Fibonacci sequence stripes. Undulating twill #Strickland number 216 #Weaving #fiberart #handwoven #floorloom

Well we're getting there. 8/2 cotton (Webs, Brassard, Camile Valley, mystery brand) at 24 epi x 10 yards. Been a bit so everything takes more time and more complaints from my body. Will probably tie onto the cloth beam later. #Weaving #handwoven #fiberart #teatowel #stricklerincolor

10 yard towel warp beamed. Maybe, someday, I'll learn to not do ambitious projects the first time out with new equipment. I just added the sectional beam to my Baby Wolf and it's been a minute since I've done any sectional warping. We'll see how it goes. Once I asked for some help it went fast.

Just added a sectional beam to my Schacht Baby Wolf. Not loving these 2 inch sections. Too many spools needed with all the color changes! #Weaving #handweaing #towels
