So, I am being very crafty lately, and I just thought I would share some of the progress of my stick weaving. Usually you use sticks, I wanted to try needles instead. I got them from hobby lobby for $1.20 each, they're called "weaving needles". They are near the knitting/crochet stuff. Anyway, it was kind of a gamble if it would work or not, and it came out really well. The only problem I am having is the smaller the needles are, the harder it is to move the work down.


It's going to be a belt, obviously from the mass of white cord you can tell I have a long way to go. It's really easy, but takes a really long time. The skein of yarn looks really big in the picture, so I took the second image to show the actual size of the belt.
