A ran into an old friend and she and her family kindly gifted me her mother’s Union rug loom!
The warp is already on, I just need to tie it. I am pretty excited to get started. In return, I need to weave something on it for one of the brothers. I can’t wait to get started.
I am a total beginner (epic failure even) at weaving but I am determined to figure it out! Last night I put the warp on the Katie loom and it didn’t go well….
At first everything seemed fine until I tried to raise the heddles. Then as you can see the shed is a mess ;(
If anyone can tell me what I am doing wrong I would greatly appreciate it!
WARP GOES OVER THE TOP OF THE BACK BEAM AND THEN DOWN TO TIE ON THE WARP BEAM. SAME IN THE FRONT.
ReplyDeleteWoot! A Union Loom! They are great workhorses... Good luck with the little loom--I think Cathy's on to something there.
