I thought some of you might be amused by this. In my non-work time, I'm an avid weaver and teacher of weaving. I'm working on a project involving creating many detailed weaving patterns, so I wrote R code to automate it. Details here: http://stringpage.com/blog/?p=822 If the overlap between R users and avid tablet weavers turns out to be
1, I'll polish it up and turn it into a package.

Brilliant Sarah ! I love seeing such unexpected and creative applications. I'm not a weaver but am a knitter (and a knotter actually) and have mused about using R to help design elements of textured knitting patterns e.g. as seen in single-colour, traditional fisherman's jumpers from England and Scotland. I've yet to do anything more than muse though. Hope it turns into a package :) Michael

Nice, Last year I found that my office needed some decoration and my wife has some fancy sewing machines that can be programmed to do embroidery and cross-stitch. So I designed some cross stitches (using R and the program for the machines) that show distribution functions and equations for the Central Limit Theorem, Bayes Theorem, and the Mean Value Theorem of Integration and my wife stitched them out for me. I certainly get varied comments when people see them. Nice to know there are others who mix R, Statistics, and Textile crafts.

I love it. ?I hope you are planning a talk at the UseR!2012 in Nashville.
Maybe we'll have hand-woven R-logo lanyards for our conference badges? Get weaving Sarah! Barry
