Hi all! I am known as Finna the Weaver in the SCA (sca.org for more info) and about 2012-13ish I discovered tablet weaving. After decking out my Norse garb and finding various other uses for myself and my household, I wanted to keep going because I loved it so much! But I can't find enough uses for the bands myself, therefore I chose to sell them. Here is my catalog of examples of what I can do, both found patterns and motifs, and original works.
All bands are made up to 8 feet long using crochet cotton, so they are durable and washable. I also have cats so keep that in mind if you wish to purchase form me.
You can reach me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/fishnweasel or email me at fish.n.weasel@gmail.com.
Also see our website at https://sites.google.com/view/fish-n-weasel/home. I accept payments through PayPal. $10 Shipping will be added to all single packages.
Don't know what do do with a band? Look at the Band Idea page for some inspiration.
