My loom has been out of commission for the last couple of months, but I’m getting the last of the parts today!

It’s been rough not being able to weave. I did a lot of mediocre knitting to keep myself occupied. But I did manage to sew this cute bag that is worth showing off.

Photo of tote bag. The outer fabric is greenish blue with splatters of gold, black and purple. The lining fabric is a deep orange with pink flowers. The straps are a very bright gold webbing.

Hot out of the kiln: my latest experiment combining a crocheted round thing with ceramic slip. I feel that I'm getting closer.

Photos show: 1) the crocheted round thing (cotton yarn); 2) freshly soaked in slip and placed in the slump mold; 3) after glazing with Korean Celadon, right side up; 4) after glazing with Korean Celadon, upside down.

This needs a foot. I'll do that in the next experiment.

Crocheted-ceramic bowl dipped once in Korean Celadon glaze, positioned upside-down. It shows off the texture of the crocheted fabric and crinkled paper towels nicely.

The crocheted round thing was soaked in B-Mix slip for about an hour before shaking off the excess slip and placing it in a slump mold lined with paper towels. The towels soaked up some of the excess moisture from the slip. [Note: the slump mold was a failed bowl that I made and repurposed.]
A badly crocheted round thing made from royal blue colored cotton yarn. It is a bit wider than 10 inches in diameter, as shown by the tape measure lying across it.
