test weaving of penelope's tapestry on the chiusi skyphos:
reference:
there are some adjustments I need to make for tension, but I'd like to make the next version into a header band for a warp-weighted loom so I can try weaving the whole pot, including telemachus and penelope.
progress?
the proportions on the header band have improved, but I think I maybe should have doubled the weft threads for the warp.
also if anyone wants to knit the heddles for me, please be my guest. the last time I tied on heddles, I put the bar in the wrong place and had to redo the whole thing.
in true penelope fashion, I may need to unweave and start over, but at least now I've got the loom weights and heddles in place.
I started weaving the spear, penelope, and the right border via double-weave with the intent to leave the remaining warp threads unwoven (as they would be on penelope's loom on the pot), but predictably this is giving me tension problems. I either need to increase the loom weights or just weave the black layer and leave the orange warp threads unwoven, and then switch colors once I get to the heddle bars in the drawing, with the black warp threads floating on top. (I guess weft-faced tapestry would be a third option, if I add a ton more tension.)
either way, this is going to take me the full three years of penelope's stratagem, or perhaps the entire twenty years of odysseus's absence, primarily because clearing the sheds takes a monumental effort each time with this double-weave setup (which I'm not even sure is how it's supposed to be done, I kind of set it up based on vibes and what I thought made sense from floor loom setups).
I have 999 problems and warp tension is 997 of them (the other two are my selvedges).

The artist's description of the piece:
In the language of flowers, many species relate to grief, sorrow, and remembrance. My husband enjoyed surprising me with fresh flowers, but he has gone to Glory and I am lost in my grief.

i love when characters are just autistic and it’s not a plot device like the autism is just there
i'm rewatching the future job and like. everything that happens with parker makes me so emo. the fact that she doesn't run off to one of her safe houses after the taping, she goes to nate's apartment (or even if she did run off to one of her safe houses first and we just didn't see it, nate's apartment is where she ultimately ends up). the fact that she's openly emotional and crying in front of the team. the gentle way that everyone talks to her, even tara as the newest member of the group who doesn't have the history with parker that nate and eliot and hardison do—nate is so soft and sweet and careful as he explains the cold reading tricks, tara is so tender and careful too, hardison is so quick and eager to offer up explanations and video evidence to back it all up. the way that eliot and hardison are sitting so close to each other, they're giving parker a respectful amount of distance but they themselves practically have their knees touching as they look on side-by-side with such concern. the fact that without even a look or a nudge from anyone else, eliot—reformed killer eliot! reformed killer eliot whose past and the horrible things he's done haunt him every fucking day!!—just goes ahead and offers up in that almost shy way he does that yeah, sure, he could cut off rand's arms and head. he could kill him. if parker wants that, he can make that happen. he doesn't even say "we" could, he says "i" could. he, him, eliot could do that. for all of them, their girl is hurting, their parker is in pain, and damn if they're not gonna do everything they can to be kind with her and take care of her. and parker considers nate's place enough of a home or at least a safe space that this is where she flees to when she's devastated, and even as she's so heartbroken, she trusts her team as they try to comfort her and tell her everything's alright. like is anyone else seeing this. hello?????

an underrated kink is corruption. i want to make you worse. i love to coax it all out of you and make you admit how hot you really think it is. don’t worry, no one’s going to find out. no one’s going to judge you. it’s okay, you don’t have to fight it anymore. just let it get to you. you need this.
