Here there be (Dublin) Dragons! 🐉

It never ceases to amaze me just how detailed we can get when brocading while tablet weaving. This reproduction attempt was really fun to do! Although I am already brimming with more ideas for other projects.

This is INCREDIBLE. How delicate your work is! How wonderful and beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing your work with us.

Brocade tablet weaving is terrifyingly slow... I don't trust myself to pick the correct threads tbh so I will just admire this. The white and gold combination is so pretty and delicate!

I have been making vestments for my church, and they can use 15 or more meters of trim like this. I am just amazed at how time consuming it would have been in pre-industrial times to weave those quantities!

what an amazing video, i always enjoy these. i am sorry for your loss, Enya lives in our hearts.

So sorry for the loss of your beloved Enya - thank you for sharing that lovely tribute to her with all of us. And what a beautiful piece you wove! It makes an absolutely lovely addition to your time-traveller kit. No risk of the temporal locals mistaking you for a mere peasant now.

What you just demonstrated is absolutely magical!!! ❤

I just began warping a Dublin dragons pattern on the inkle loom, so I was super excited when I saw the subject of your new video. Oh my goodness you used such incredibly fine and delicate thread! What a beautiful finished piece. Thank you for sharing - always enjoy whatever content you are putting out!

[projectpenwing]

Yes! A new historical weaving video🤩 Brb, just need a cup of tea while i watch 👏

[susansontags]

The running sequence and that final shot are absolutely stunning!! Not entirely convinced you aren't a time-traveler :0) Beautiful work, as always!!

[karlahovde]

I think this might be your most beautifully filmed video yet!

Tablet weaving is an incredible skill. I like yarn crafting, mostly knitting, I definitely wanna try weaving, but tablet weaving is just a wholly different league. I didn't even know it existed before I found your videos tbh. Absolutely amazing.

My heart sunk when I read your tribute to your kitty.

Beautiful, meditative work. RIP sweet Enya 💔

I Love your works... I admire you so much, thanks for your videos Kristine.

There isn't much to say that hasn't been said already, but wow. One cannot but appreciate the attention to detail. Such a beautiful ribbon!

Having lost a cat friend during the end-of-the-year holidays, I send you much love. It's amazing how much love fits into a small purring friend. They are indeed incredible creatures.

Astoundingly beautiful. Oh my goodness. The Dublin/double dragons pattern (here in the US for whatever reason I see “double dragons” listed as the pattern name a lot) is my absolute favorite, too. Incredibly beautiful! Something about the white and gold color scheme makes me think of beautiful, ethereal elf weddings in a fantasy Tolkien-esque world 🧝🏻‍♀️

[christenaeriksen]

As always, I am totally amazed by your brocade weaving! Absolutely stunning! 🇨🇦

[stefaniegiglio]

Your videos are all so beautiful and gentle, as is the work you produce. Thank you so much for sharing.

So sorry to hear about Enya <3

If I didn't already wanted to learn tablet weaving, your video certainly makes me want to try!
