I love refreshing my understanding of different weaving concepts so downloadable courses such as Introduction to Shadow Weave are perfect for me.

Every year as the date approaches, I wish I had an autumn-themed runner, towels, or new handwoven napkins. With a little bit of discipline and maybe a purchase of some yarn, I plan on weaving at least one of those items for this year's celebration.

If you have thought about it but never actually done it, now might be the time to try sewing with your handwoven cloth.

I look at my own weaving in a different way than I look at others’ work, and that’s how it should be.

It seems so obvious, but somehow I forgot how to keep track of how many placemats are on my cloth beam.

Twills can be simple or complex, but they are all related, and they are all interesting for different reasons.

Someone told me that there were 65, 534 possible tie-up combinations on a 16-shaft loom. I didn’t know whether that was true, but I thought it was worth finding out.

You can weave for other people, but weave for yourself, first.

The raffia I knew as a kid is not the same raffia that you can buy today.

As I wait for warm weather to finally arrive, I can dream and weave summer projects using Handwoven May/June 2021 as my guide.
