Not everything in your weaving studio needs to come from a weaving or yarn store. Here is a list of items in my studio from the hardware store:
Before making any decisions about heddles, it is important to figure out how many you will use on each shaft (by checking the draft).
I am new to eight shafts and am wondering how to do tabby (plain weave) on an 8-shaft loom?
The yarn is core spun with just a bit of glitz, and it is the star in this sassy woven satchel.
Maxima and I met several years ago when I was searching for a weaver to teach me the bandweaving style used in the remote rural communities of the central Bolivian highlands.
To weave well, you must also be able to unweave well.
I have found that different measuring tools help in different ways to improve my weaving speed and process.
Check out these products that might be new to you and help you in your weaving: fan reeds, supplementary wavy beater, recycled yarns, and a cloth beam extension.
I enjoy reading about weaving even when I’m not around a loom, and that's one of the reasons I like having Handwoven available in digital form.
