Repetition is key to learning a technique, but adding new ideas and methods keeps your weaving fresh!

I was so intrigued by what Liz Moncrief had to say about Brown Sheep’s bright yarns for the September/October 23 Yarn Lab that I felt compelled to do my own mini Yarn Lab using pin looms and rigid-heddle looms.

Looking for something interesting in the fiber world? Here are two shows for you. And better yet, both of them include weaving!

Looking for the perfect hostess/host gift? Any handwoven towel would be welcome, but here are seven that you might be able to finish before the end of the year...maybe even before Thanksgiving!

One way to understand a structure is by studying it, but putting it on your loom will further solidify what you have learned.

If you are looking for more about weaving that creates color and light effects such as iridescence, incandescence, and pearlescence, you’ll find it in this latest issue of Handwoven!

I love seeing how weavers interpret their sources of inspiration, and that was the case for the Shifting Shadows Scarf in the May/June 23 issue.

Using an advancing twill threading and treadling with pastels in the warp and a darker weft, Barbara Goudsmit created a scarf with movement and sparkle, almost like the waves it was named for.

Our first ever weaving event will take place February 25-29. Four days of weaving bliss!

Our summer issue will concentrate on rugs and rug structures and a subject that is somewhat off-center: “Symmetry is Overrated.”
