Funny discovery yesterday: I was weaving this band

Funny discovery yesterday:
I was weaving this band when my pattern paper ran out. Too lazy to go upstairs to get a new sheet, so I just kept going freehand — I do know what I’m doing, right?
It worked, sure... but I didn't enjoy it.
I missed the overview.
I missed the process.
I missed the drawing.
So today: first I drew everything I wove yesterday — then I continued. 😊

Summer weaving in The Netherlands! After a crazy month finally found a bit of time to work on this project. With the help of a lovely friend 🐑

Rainy afternoon and thus… time to weave! 4 color twill using my @lojanwheelsandlooms 3-in-1 loom with tablet weaving board. Pattern is based on my mother’s jigsaw from 1972.

I often get the question when a band is “good”

I often get the question when a band is “good”, but my answer is always vague: everyone has their own hand of weaving. And here you see it. Two good weavers, @marionverloop and me, under exactly the same conditions: woven on the same warp, with cold hands, with the same weft thread, on the same loom. And you see the difference. I beat more firmly and my band is 4.1 cm wide. Marion beats less firm and her band is slightly narrower (3.9 cm). The big question: which band is good?

Pattern: sample band of @lojanwheelsandlooms Inkeltje, included in the manual

When both of your worlds collide! 🌟
Today I had the chance to combine my love for math and weaving at @mathfestpwn — a festival all about showing that math can be fun!

After my talk on connections between math and weaving, visitors could try weaving themselves during the walk-in workshop. And wow! So many kids (and adults!) tried tablet weaving, inkle weaving, and rigid heddle weaving.

Huge thanks to the Mathfest team for the organization — it was a great day!

Finally found the courage to warp my really large loom. Used 4 meters out of the possible 15 😃 but it is my longest warp ever! You can see me weaving on this loom on Monday 12th and Friday 16th in @zuiderzeemuseum

Last weekend during a workshop at @wolwinkelvandraad I got the question “do you ever do something else than math and weaving?” Yes, I do!

Last week the #winterbandenwissel2025 came to an end: an exchange of bands, in which you weave a sample for one of the other participants and you receive one. This year not only bands were sent, but also extensive letters! Here are some examples. For the complete overview see https://www.bandweefblog.nl/winter-banden-wissel-2025-de-resultaten/

@loes_meijer once wove a band in double weave with abstract shapes on a blue background. That inspired me to put my own spin on it: geometric figures in neon colors on a black background. Too wide for an inkle loom, so I used a shaft loom instead. Just took it off the loom—on to the next one in this style because it’s so much fun! #doubleweave #loueterica #bandweaving #inkleweaving #scheepjesmaxisweettreat #geometric

So this is Inkeltje, the smaller inkleloom by @lojanwheelsandlooms . I’m testing it for tablet weaving and I love it!

It fits on your lap.

You can remove the upper front peg, giving you more space and to avoid twist you have to flip your border tablets less frequently.

And Lojan introduced the Tiny Tablets last week: 5x5 cm (2x2 inches): firm and smooth!

Last but not least: the cool yellow shuttle!

The library in Barneveld organized a crafts day. Many visitors haven’t heard of band weaving and I love to show them the beauty of this craft. Marion Verloop gave a demonstration during the market and in the adternoon I gave a workshop tablet weaving. @lojanwheelsandlooms Inkeltje got company from Pinkeltje, made by Marion . Thanks for organizing @bibliotheekbarneveld and thanks for the nice day @marionverloop !

I’m teaching a series of tablet weaving courses

I’m teaching a series of tablet weaving courses at @biebalmelo organized by @weeffanaat . A very enthusiastic and talented group of 7 weavers. Last time we did the 4 color pebble weave and the results are great and very inspiring! Today they started a double faced band. And during lunch we went to the market nearby to buy some Scheepjes maxi 😄
Great day, this is why I love to teach!

For all inkle and tabletweavers in the Netherlands

For all inkle and tabletweavers in the Netherlands and Belgium!

Met de jaarwisseling in beeld is het ook weer tijd voor de aftrap van de Winter-Banden-Wissel 2025! De jaarlijkse ‘bandenruil’, waarbij je als deelnemer een stukje band weeft voor een ander en zelf ook een band krijgt. Met als thema “dat ene patroon”. Met als doel om een mooie lijst van websites en boeken te krijgen van alle wevers die meedoen en die weer als inspiratie kan dienen voor nog veel meer wevers. Laten we er met z’n allen een creatieve start van 2025 van maken!
Inschrijven kan t/m 21 januari 2025 via mijn website: https://www.bandweefblog.nl/winter-banden-wissel-2025/

The weaver on holiday is …. stitching! Working on 324 the Sequel by @worksbyabc . Collected 140 out of the 324 colors needed and I will visit 3 friends in the coming week to see if they have some of my missing colors. Love the pattern and enjoy my DMC search 😃
