Lots of fun. I don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s going on with the unevenness of the borders, especially at the bottom. But I&#8217;m pleased to be using up bits and scraps of yarn and making something coherent out of it. I planned out the symmetry, not totally successful, but close enough. I&#8217;m really liking the skinny stripes in the center, although this was a mistake. They were supposed to be little vertical stripes (&#8220;pick and pick&#8221; technique). The term &#8220;pick and pick&#8221; finally makes sense to me. And now I know how to make skinny horizontal stripes as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Something about weaving feels very challenging to my brain. I always scored lower on &#8220;spatial relationships&#8221; tests, doing much better at more abstract efforts like words and numbers. I find making pictures out of lots of horizontal passes mind-blowing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have some yarns picked out for another one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4136-edited.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11062\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4136-edited.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4136-edited-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Walked yesterday. A bit of sunlight lit up a patch of the shore across the water. Theatrical. As I look at these, I&#8217;m thinking about horizontalness and symmetry. The photos have horizontal stripes, but design is not symmetrical. Weaving eye is developing.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4134.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4134.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11056\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4134.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4134-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4135.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4135.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11054\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4135.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.gemtactics.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/img_4135-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The little weaving is off the pipe loom and finished.
