My Weave-Along: Don't Try This at Home

Sometimes you forget to follow your own rules as Madelyn did for a weave-along.

Cooking at the Loom

You don't always cook by a recipe but you use them for inspiration. Anita talks about how she uses weaving projects from books and magazines as her "weaving recipes".
