I’ve been trying to teach myself mosaic crochet. It’s harder than it looks on YouTube 🙂. Debating whether to stick with it or move on to something else.

Temperature crafts are so fun, but such a commitment 🙂. I did a temperature crochet blanket one year and a few years later I did an embroidered temperature tree embroidering a leaf every day.

Not to a fellow rigid heddle loom weaver 😉.

This is a fun pattern! Not too difficult! You just need to be careful when you sley the reed and then it’s plain weave with two shuttles after that.

Thanks, Deb! I am debating developing a class on weaving coasters, so I wanted to try several yarns and patterns.

I’m excited for you! I just did another rigid heddle loom class this weekend (a family of six!) and it was so satisfying to see how amazed they were with their first scarves ❤️. I recommend Kelly Casanova on YouTube for some good beginner projects, like the “Heart Scarf” and tea towels. Have fun!

No, though he recognized some of the locations when we watched the show. He says he hopes they do a second season in the hopes that he might get called out to work on it then. He’s back to working season 4 of “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” right now, so he’s happy.
