And again I look at my collection of vintage #bobbins for #inspiration. I have an idea of a "book scroll" made of very thin fabric. Then I could sew on little "stuff", textile collages with intuitive embroidery. Small, handy portions for the Sunday animation in our cultural heritage centre for a larger art work.

In this heat today, the idea is now slowly simmering in my brain until it is cooked. 🤣

The most challenging thing with #TunisianCrochet for me is how I'm holding the hook as the stitches grow. I need to take active breaks. It means I'm much slower with this compared to #crochet and #knitting but as a personal compromise to weaving, it does look good. Even if i made a booboo with the honeycomb stitch count (the beginning rows), but it's my own pattern so I decided to 'reset' with a couple of Afghan stitch rows. And these are all my own yarn I spun wheeeee
