I love to boost posts with photos of textile work, but only if they have alt-texts.

Japanese silk braiding used for armour, kimonos, and sacred scrolls.
A fabulous display at #JapanHouse, London

“Japan is home the original #art of #braiding known as #kumihimo that got its start in the Asuka and Nara Periods (538-794CE) and continues to be in use to the present day. With the use of multicolored #threads, a single kumihimo cord takes quite some time to produce, yet it has never played a leading role in the world of traditional #handicrafts. Rather it served as an essential decoration, an accessory which has always served to add a splash of color to #Japanese culture.”

Thanks for the original post! Here's one of the things she wrote about ethnomathematics and braids. The activities at the end are simple, but clear, which as a teacher means we can fold them into an existing lesson or expand them. Gotta love when math is all around us. http://www.math.buffalo.edu/mad/special/gilmer-gloria_HAIRSTYLES.html
Getting back to work means I have to do actual work and not watch sweaty meaty men slap each other.
Thankfully I keep my hands busy braiding while I watch sweet, sexy, violence.
Gotta buy more wood....

followed a tutorial video on fingerloop braiding from this site:

and actually managed to churn out my first cord!

I've seen #kumihimo #braiding before but weaving is more interesting to me, I like braiding by hand and what would I do with those cords? Well, weaving has more involved setup and needs more light, I found that braiding thin yarns hurts my pinkies because they have to be bent out of the way the whole time. And, I can braid candle wicks 😎 And also can print the tool easily if I'm lucky to have 1.5h of power straight. So welcome to the flock of my hobbies 😉 #KyivPowerCut

Do you love #moss and #mosstodon? Then you will love Robin Wall Kimmerer with her wonderful #Book "Gathering Moss". Get hooked by this highly interesting #talk with her and Lucy Jones (I saw it live and was flashed): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3FSpMMzUNI
Even if is not about moss, her book #Braiding #Sweetgrass is a #mustread ... it changed my thinking.

Some stuff that led to me thinking about a relationship between #PascalsTriangle and #binaryTrees.
It seems to have started with me trying to represent Pascal’s triangle using things like #crochet, #macrame, #braiding and #knitting.
