This is the 15th year of continuous daily publication for 365Caws. All things considered, it's likely it will be the last year as it is becoming increasingly difficult for me to find interesting material. However, I hope that I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world with my natural history posts, or encouraged a novice weaver or needleworker. If so, I've done what I set out to do.

A Band Of Rangers
Day 130: As you can see, I revised the colours in my latest krokbragd design, and I'm quite happy with the results, given the limitations of the weave and thread options. I thought I'd give it a little context here so there would be no mistaking the figure. I think it could easily be adapted to other professions, say a fireman or police officer. I have another design in the developmental stage, which is to say I have it on paper, but any loom I could weave it on is currently occupied. That said, it shouldn't take me longer than today to finish up the band of rangers on the inkle. It's only two yards long, and I'm over halfway done. Weaving on the inkle is significantly slower than using the bonker loom, but it's good for trial runs.
