wherez my bangs?

As you can see from our model's sartorial selections, fall is most definitely in our midst! Trees are losing their leaves, the air is losing its warmth, weaves are losing their bangs...

dc weave

Our good friend Matt sent us this beauty in DC. This is the first United States weave we've gotten that's not in a state, but in a district! That's pretty awesome. This is also an amazing photo. Look where the weave is: on the road- in the crosswalk! Safety first!


thanks Matt

weave of wonder

We received this gem from a faithful follower all the way up in Harlem. Not only did he send in interesting and controversial photos, we also received a striking and thalassic piece on the experience of finding it. (plus it's our first Harlem weave!)

then, when i was on the sidewalk right across the street from my door, as the bell tolled 2, i saw it. i felt a bit like a whaling ship captain when the first whale breaches the ocean surface. i have a lot of whaling experience so i can say that definitively. so there, tangled and tustled amidst the turbulent urban tempest of scaffolding, concrete, water bottle squirt-tops, and empty white castle burger-shells, she lay, the weave of wonder.





Now, we know what you might say: That? That's a hairball!
And you may be right- but who can know for sure? To us, it will always be a weave... of wonder.


thanks Brendan

union square: the new jump-off

And by jump-off we mean place to see weaves. That's right folks, our first Manhattan-based documented weave-on-the-ground sighting! And in Union Square (one of our favorite places)- the sheer luck!

An inaugural story comes with this post: The weave was about two feet away when I saw it. I literally gasped! Then all of a sudden, it rolled toward me- sort of like a tumbleweave but it wasn't. Then it stopped. It's multicolored, too.

Right you are, weave spotting friend, right you are...

the motherload and tumbleweave

Today we were introduced to the notion of "tumbleweave" by our friend, Amanda. Then on the way home, we not only experienced our first tumbleweave, but also our first dual weave action. Big things are happening, people! Let's recount our night.


So, this is the tumbleweave. We first saw it from a distance and positively identified it as in fact a "tumbleweave". As we approached it, it began in a "tumbleweed" motion, rolling and maneuvering along the sidewalk. In the midst of our awe, a passerby accidentally (we think) stepped on it. Thus, we give you flattened tumbleweave.


A rare site indeed. Angle A of the two-for-one special.

Angle B: aerial shot.
Here she is: the motherload. We have a size 8.5 foot next to it for scale.

Here is the second one of the duo. Sizeable as well.

thanks Amanda

weaves at night

Dear nay-sayers: here are some weaves on the ground. At night. There can be no disputing that this is the real thing.

So... thoughts about how it got there?
