Finished Project Does this count?

This is my first weaving-type project. I really enjoyed making it!! I found the frame in the street a while back and all the fabric are bottoms of shirts that I’ve cropped over the past couple years

Yes. It's weaving and "counts." :) How is the yarn attached?

Also: are you a dancer or just short-waisted, or just like the cropped look? I found this aspect of the work delightfully random while entertainingly specific.

I used a framing stapler we had at home! Stapled the pieces of fabric to the back of the frame.

And, I wear a lot of oversized tees, like XL when I fit S. I like to keep some of them long, but I also like to crop some to have them stop right above the waist of my pants

Oh wait no, the orange and yellow yarn, I glued with a fabric adhesive and some crazy glue

Thank you!
I have two actually. One of them attacks my yarn too. I think she hasn’t gotten to it yet

That's pretty cool!

If you ever made a potholder on one of those little looms, I'll call you a weaver.
