• Specific weave structures/fibres/dyes/techniques, including commonly used textile terms, weaving books/magazines, or equipment manufacturers and yarn sources.

• Photographs/drawings/sketches/collages reminiscent of or which inspire textiles. Cones or skeins lined up while considering arrangements, warp chains, or swatches.

• My student/new weaver; how I teach/taught, good or bad examples.

• “How I (do something)”, e.g. how I dress my loom, either a long post or serialized.

• My other (math/science/music, whatever!!) life and how that influences my weaving.

• My weaving record keeping.

• How I mix "other" things with my weaving, e.g. new or old technology, "equipment" from other crafts/sports/kitchen, etc.

• Simple recipes, particularly baking.
