Portrait of the Fiber Artist as a Young Man

Brian hard at work.

Brian is going to town with his potholder weaving loom. He has 5 loops to go to complete his second potholder. I'lll have to order him some more loops. I wonder if I could knit or crochet some? Seems that a crocheted chain would be a great potholder loop, but how to join the ends?

On Bookslut today I read about the 50 Book Challenge. With so much knitting to do, I am not sure I can get 50 books in, but maybe if I count knitting books... I'll try to keep my 2005 booklist updated, anyway.
