In 2018, 8 years ago, I sold my first fedora. Since then I have improved my technique: I turned the braid around on the hat bands, plus I switched from plaiting to braiding on rugs. This pic was taken at CNY Fiber, in Bouckville.

I bought the base tuffet seat in Rochester, from Marketplace, on my way to here in Herkimer. I asked the seller for a measurement, grabbed materials to braid it out here in the booth. Finished today! It came out rather pretty!

Happy Pride! In honor of the 2019 Reboot inclusive Pride Flag, I have braided its colors into this extra sturdy bar-height stool with built-in footrest metal bar. There is light pink in this piece as well, as a nod to history with persecuting governments marking g**s in pink. Too heavy to ship at a reasonable price so I won’t be listing it on Etsy. You can buy it at tomorrow or Sunday, or direct message me to arrange a pick up.

My new studio is complete and I am beginning to move in. Very exciting so far. It’s embarrassing how much wool I’ve acquired this year. No regrets. 😹
