Uncooked spaghetti is added to a baking dish along with water, tomato sauce, and seasonings, and then it’s baked. Yes, you read that right: the spaghetti bakes in the oven! (How cool is that?) When you boil spaghetti, the water that you drain away has a ton of starch in it, but in this recipe the starch has nowhere to escape, so it cooks into the sauce and makes it extra luscious and creamy! Topped with a quick homemade alfredo sauce, this easy recipe will become a new weeknight staple.Excerpted from Craving Vegan by Sam Turnbull. Copyright © 2023 Sam Turnbull.

I LOVE BIAS BINDING! There, I said it...I love bias binding and yes all caps that's how much I love it ;) Why am i in love with bias binding?

Thanks to Jeen on Ravelry, I found a "recipe" for 8-shaft weaving on a rigid heddle loom. This is Pinwheel Weave. Yes, it is very cool. It is also somewhat time consuming (with 6 pick-up rows out of every 8 weft throws), so if you like rigid heddle to be a quick weave, this is not the draft for you! It is possible to get a nice rhythm going with it though, and the pick-up pattern is not hard to memorize, so if you do not have access to an 8-shaft loom, give this a try! I used a merino sock yarn and a 12 dent reed (wanted more wheels across the width) but I think I should have followed Jeen's advice and started out with chunky on a 5 dent, or maybe worsted on an 8 dent. This would give fewer pinwheels in a row, but also fewer threads to pick up, which would make a significant difference in the time and difficulty of the pattern. So here's how it goes (though I do recommend going to Ravelry for Jeen's step-by-step instructions and many examples of this pattern in different color combinations plus other variations and other weaving patterns). (OK, I like Jeen - she's bold and experimental and likes to try out lots of crazy ideas.) Directions: A. Warp your loom with 8 threads of each color, alternating 8 thread colors blocks all the way across. B. With your darker color, weave a plain border of some kind, at least 2 rows (more, if you like). C. Starting with your darker color, begin the pattern. You'll do all 8 rows of the pattern with this color. Pattern: row 1 - Heddle in neutral. In each 8 thread color section all the way across the row, from right to left, go over 4 threads and pick up 4 threads. Turn the pick up stick on its side to create a shed and weave your color through. row 2 - Heddle in neutral. In each 8 thread color section all the way across the row, go over 3 threads, pick up 1, over 1, pick up 3 threads. Turn the pick up stick on its side to create a shed and weave your color through. row 3 - Heddle in neutral. In each 8 thread color section all the way across the row, from right to left, go over 2 threads, pick up 1, over 1, pick up 1, over 1, and pick up 2 threads. Turn the pick up stick on its side to create a shed and weave your color through. row 4 - no pick-up (take a breath) Heddle down, plain weave shot. row 5 - no pick-up (take a breath) Heddle up, plain weave shot. row 6 - Heddle in neutral. In each 8 thread color section all the way across the row, from right to left, pick up 2 threads, over 1, pick up 1, over 1, pick up 1, and go over 2 threads. (for those who think analytically, this is the opposite of row 3) Turn the pick up stick on its side to create a shed and weave your color through. (this shows the pick up stick making the shed) row 7 - Heddle in neutral. In each 8 thread color section all the way across the row, from right to left, pick up 3 threads, over 1, pick up 1, and go over 3 threads. (opposite of row 2) (sorry, apparently I neglected to take a picture of this one) Turn the pick up stick on its side to create a shed and weave your color through. row 8 - Heddle in neutral. In each 8 thread color section all the way across the row, from right to left, pick up 4 threads and go over 4 threads. Turn the pick up stick on its side to create a shed and weave your color through. Repeat this pattern (rows 1 through 8) with your second color. And that's it, alternating colors to the end of your project. D. End with the 8 row pattern in your darker color. E. Put in your plain weave border. F. Finish fringes as desired (I twisted mine in solid color 8 thread units) And voila, a pinwheel scarf (or dishtowel, or whatever project you choose) So even though it's pretty slow going, it's actually fun! Really! And it's pretty flash, oh yes it is! (edited post on March 19 - so sorry, I was in a hurry when I first did this, and put all the process photos in upside down! All better now.)
