Weaving Day 18

Today’s papers are vintage D & D hexagon graph paper and some notebook paper that has a recipe for orange ice cream (from Nigella Lawson) and the start of a poem on one side and some tea staining on the other. The ice cream sounds good! I cut a spiral into the notebook paper then cut circular wedges from the graph paper with random edges that follow the hexagon shapes. It turns out you need an odd number of wedges to avoid the first and last piece weaving the sample over under pattern. Needless to say this one although quite simple looking took a long time to create.

Vintage (1980’s) D & D graph paper for creating dungeons and other maps.

Archimedes spiral downloaded from the Web and cut freehand into the paper.
