Remembering my own progress in learning to weave, I conceived of Loom Theory: Eight and Over Eight Scarf Collection to help other weavers progress in their own weaving careers. Like many weavers, I started weaving on 4-shaft looms.
Is there anything better than a warm snuggly blanket on a cold day? Probably not, but Elisabeth Hill’s 8-shaft Blanket Scarf comes close.
Looking for a project that is sure to impress on just 8-shafts and 10 treadles? Look no further than Bonnie Inouye’s spectacular Jin Silk Scarf.
Celebrate friendship and weaving with Suzie Liles’s 14-shaft Friendship Scarf. Suzie’s design cleverly uses Bronson lace to spell out Frienship in Weaving in crisp and lovely linen. Find it in Loom Theory 2018: Eight and Over Eight Scarf Collection.
There are very few times in my life I’ve wished I had a loom with more than 8 shafts. One of those times was when I first saw Nancy Dunlap’s astoundingly beautiful Majestic Royal Scarf from the November/December 2018 Handwoven.
I'm having a warp tension problem. After weaving a while, the edge warp threads are very tight and the center very loose, but all were even when I started.
Using just 8-shafts—no pick-up stick required—Suzie’s Friendship scarf has friendship spelled out in beautiful Bronson lace. Woven in crisp and luscious linen, this scarf from Handwoven Loom Theory: Eight and Over Eight Scarf Collection is sure to delight.
