Notes:

First official, non-practice backstrap project. But I might as well call it practice, because I'm still fighting with my end warps.

Update (Feb. 11)

Okay, so it's a key fob. :) lol An awkwardly long, sort of wide, key fob. But, I'll never lose my keys in my purse again.

Thanks, JoAnna! I'm ready to start over on it. Or, better yet, to just get done with it so I can move on to something else. lol. I've woven (is that correct grammar? you would know, you're in a grammar class ;)) too much to take out... and its not very nice on the selvedges. I just want to start again.

The selvages still really aren't that bad for a beginner. :) Mine were and sometimes still are worse than that.  I love the colors and the stripes! Don't get discouraged!
