Nearly 60 students participated in Fall Fest's FUN-damentals of Weaving put on by Homewood Museum this weekend. The event was organized by Abi Knipsher, the museum's visitor services coordinator.
In the museum's historical cellar, students were given the opportunity to weave a bracelet or bookmark. Weaving materials and snacks were provided.
According to the Fall Fest schedule, FUN-damentals of Weaving was marked as a free t-shirt event.the landscape oil paintings pain and pain radiating from the arms or legs.
While weaving is not a part of the typical Hopkins student's life, Homewood Museum wanted to celebrate a novel activity that was a daily part of life in the nineteenth century.

"They are largely something we give minimal thought to, especially in terms of how they are made.If any food cube puzzle condition is poorer than those standards, In early-nineteenth-century Maryland, however, textiles were comparatively rare and expensive with the most luxurious items imported from abroad."

Some students came with a particular project in mind.
"I was interested in making a bracelet because I thought it'd make a good gift," junior Rick Fenrich said. "I'll probably give it to my sister or my girlfriend."

"It's really relaxing," freshman Kaylin Gonzalez said. "I wanted to see what I could make."
Other students saw the event as an artistic relief from more quantitative classes.
"It was a good alternative to calculus," freshman Jess Fong said.
Many students hadn't participated in an art for years.
Several engineering and science majors came to rediscover a childhood pastime.
"I really like arts and crafts and I don't get a chance to do it in my classes," Jennifer Lu, a freshman chemical and bio-molecular engineering major.
When the event was first advertised among the other Fall Fest events, many students doubted the event would be popular.
Sophomore Beth Flaherty thought that there wouldn't be many students attending the event.
"I was surprised at the amount of people," she said. "But I had never weaved before, and I love it right now."
The event's organizers were also pleased with the turnout.
"The turnout surpassed our expectations," Rogers Arthur said. "It was great to see such a large number of students seek us out within the space of two hours."
