I'm in the latest Anticraft!

Printer-friendly version

Whoo-hoo!  I just found out that my weaving project made it into the latest issue of The Anticraft!

If you're not already familiar with the site, The Anticraft is a gothic/punk/alternative crafting site edited by Zabet Stewart, a talented graphic designer with a great sense of humor. I am thrilled that she is open to "weaverly" submissions.

The project is a transparency, which can be woven on a rigid-heddle loom (plain weave) or a four-shaft loom (twill.) In the article, the step-by-step photos show a rigid-heddle loom. 

It's called "Argh, I'm Working!" The inspiration was a real-world problem around here at casa WeaveZine, and it fixed it admirably.  (I'd tell you more, but I'm hoping you'll go read it...)

There's also a really neat article in the same issue about dyeing a lace shawl to make it look like dragon scales.

P.S. A big thanks to Bobbie Irwin for getting me over my "fear of transparency" at Convergence!
