Introducing my new creation "Felted Pierced Earrings".
Since I have lots of small (and big) left over woven pieces, I use them to make these. I feel refreshing when I make these because I usually have to sit on a loom, but making these earrings don't matter where you are.


I can sit on a dining chair while I am waiting for hot water or something.....

Aren't they cute?


Chiaki entered a shawl and received 3rd premium at the 2009 Minnesota State Fair.

SAORI is a free-style weaving without any rules or restrictions of what or how to weave.
