Thank you for the brilliant explanations and photos. I have a loom and heaps of different threads (through default, long story) but have taken no course. I've been fumbling about with books and Internet downloads and the suspicion I am doing things the hard way. (I'm pretty sure of it now, looking at your photos...) I've been producing stuff constantly in the year I've had it - scarves, blankets, rugs, belts, guitar straps http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=10945&l=3274c&id=555185104 - and love it, but really need to learn something. Thanks again. It was wonderful to stumble across your writings. Ohhhhhhhh – that’s how you sley the reed! Thank you for the brilliant explanations and photos.

You're a natural. Also, I think the process of weaving is just about the most beautiful thing to photograph. All those little threads in a row.... Makes me swoon... Your selvedges are so even!
