First

Here is the more even, regular end of the very long table runner sampler, my first weaving project on Jessie, my little rigid heddle loom. The other end is looser and much more irregular with uneven tension and wiggly edges. I used sock leftovers and other scraps and odds and ends. It was fun and I can't wait to warp Jessie, the loom for my next project!!

Warped

After hours of study, trial and error, I finally got the little loom warped. It involved several battles with tangled piles of string and/or yarn on the floor, and memories of my mom and dad concentrating hard on warping her large, four (I think) harness loom. I learned a lot about what I don't know about. And because of that the weaving is wonky. But I'm telling myself "this is how we learn."
