It's a Wintery day here in Waiwhetu - perfect for Taaniko and TV 🙂
I've set myself a challenge

I've completed the Kete Taaniko I've been working on and have added it to the set.
They're for my daughter Erenora and my four daughters in law - Olivia, Ayla, Tara, and Chelsea.

I'm happy with todays progress. I stopped because I kept making mistakes with the pattern so I had to unpick
Taaniko is such a great teacher.
If you keep making mistakes it's time to stop, think about the choices you're making and don't make the same mistakes again.
Taaniko life hack 😊

I wove a Rainbow 🌈 using Taaniko

Got it made into a phone cover!
Hopefully my sister adds it to our online thingy

My daughter, Erenora (Ellie) turns 23 today.
She wanted money for her birthday 😊
I put it in a Taaniko purse....because the money will go. The purse will hang on in there for years 😊

Last week I took my mokopuna, Rangiātea, to see my Taaniko on display at Te Papa.
She was more interested in other stuff 😊
Her middle name is Veranoa.... So I understand her looking for her Koro Sam was more important

Taaniko belts for my daughter Erenora and her boyfriend Reihana
Cos....couples stuff 💜🤎

I wove a kete out of Taaniko and faux leather for my moko. A kete for every birthday means that at 9 years of age, she now has more kete than me 💜

Taaniko is all about maths. Had they taught maths to me in school - using Taaniko as an example I may have passed 😊
But then again - I failed Art as well lol.
Spent today working with both Maths and Art ☺️

A year ago I completed this little backpack with a Taaniko insert. I've waited a year for someone to come along to give it to. The right person never showed so I'm going to auction it off. I'll put details up this week sometime

I wove a length of Taaniko and made it into a shoulder bag.

A 12th birthday gift for my mokopuna Caylee -
because she likes blue and because shoulder bags are handy 💙

My darling husband has caught a flight - I took care of his carry on 'stuff' because if you can flash something up with Taaniko - then why not?

My phone is looking very flash in its new case @whaeavee.bsky.social !

Busy day today doing boring dum housework and grocery shopping . Rewarded myself with good fun stuff - turning Taaniko into shoulder bags

A few years ago, on this day....
I delivered a piece of my taaniko to the National Museum of New Zealand - TePapa.
I saw this pop up on my Facebook memory and smiled. It is a piece dear to my heart and represents hundreds of hours of my life.
It's currently on display at TePapa

Walking, running on trails, love the outdoors, the peace, birdsong, nature. Wild swimming esp in lakes, the wildness of oceans excites & scares me in equal measure. Avid reader for learning & pleasure. Making stuff - knit, sew, raranga, taaniko, drawing...not very good at any of it but I enjoy it!

Taaniko is incredible xx
