Dressing the loom ...
‘Dressing the loom’ before I can even start weaving!What does that mean? Well, it’s just putting the warp onto the loom.And when I say ‘putting’, I mean:- sleying the reed- threading the heddles- winding the warp onto the back beam- tying the front of the warp onto the front beam- tying up the treadlesAnd then away we go!
Dark side of the loom ...
#sorrynotsorry On this warp: a birthday scarf for my stepdaughter Lily, and more scarves for my stockist The Jam Factory.This was my wild and crazy Friday night, haha!
