Fabric! Yay!

Today, I wove fabric.
Link: My Glorious Loom
That's a piece of fence wire rehabilitated as a loom, plus a hook(out of same wire) to draw the yarn through. The end result is not impressive - it's about 1" by 1". But, you see - I wove my own fabric, out of yarn. I did it with my own hands, with the assistance of tools I made.
To create the loom and hook, I used needlenose pliers to bend the wire so it wouldn't be dangerously poke-y, and a file to polish the hook.
