Weaving Photos
A few photos of my looms and tools.
Warping My Loom
Before I set up my studio, I used to warp the loom on my dining room table. The table extends to 90 inches, so it was a perfect length for the wraps and shawls I was weaving.
At the right, you can see the wooden cup rack I use as warping pegs and the blue plastic C-clamps I bought at Orchard Supply Hardware.
Loom perspective
The loom is warped to it’s full width of 20 inches.
My Favorite Shuttle
This is a KCL Woods low profile shuttle. He does the most marvelous things with wood!
Inkle Loom
I’ve also played with an Ashford inkle loom. I need more time to really explore what I can do with this loom.
