For my weaving website I wanted a novel font. So here is FRIVOLITE, the shape is based on the beautifully shaped shuttle used for hand weaving. Indeed the O and 0 and @ show perfectly the shuttle shape. The other glyphs were made to fit (as far as reasonable) into this specific shape. I know that frivolité is knotting rather than weaving, but this shuttle shape can be found in weaving, too. An alternate N and Z is on 'extended Latin B'.

I love the details ... the horizontal strokes remind me of the weft. Perhaps the spacing could be a bit tighter on the C, L, P and S. But still a 10/10

@p2p: done, you were right, thanks :) I also reduced the space on 1, 2 and 4.
