...I needed a new watchband for this 25+ year old watch...
...I had gotten in when I was pregrant with Our Airman...and it was starting to fray...and just generally fall apart...imagine that...haha...
...so I thought...since it is a woven band...that I'd just weave a new one...
...using some rainbow yarn from stash...I set up the loom...
...and just started weaving...
...I started out with 10 warp threads...but cut it down to 8 year as I thought the band was a tiny bit too wide...and I'll just pull the cut thread out at the end...
...after I'd woven enough inches...I cut it off the loom and wove in the warp threads...
...and the new band was done...I was kind of bummed that the rainbow yarn had no purple in it though...
...and it's just the tiniest bit 'wonky'...but I still think it will be fine...
...so I threaded it under the posts...and stitched the little fastener back on...
...and there it is...a new (very colourful) watchband...
...what's in your workbasket this week?...
~Have a lovely day!
