Back to weaving
Originally uploaded by stellar_muddle_2

The warp weighted loom set up in its new resting place. Yay to upstairs studio area for projects - me weaving and sewing, Z calligraphy.

Current length 25 inches / 64 cm. I forget how long it was by the end of CF, though I may have noted down somewhere. I can probably work out by where it goes wobbly wonky where I started with the wrong beater. Much better once I got back to using the one Boyd made.

About 3 more photos of it in the Flickr vicinity, including closeupish views of the fabric. Somewhat on the coarse side.

Probably need another 30 cm to have enough for the planned satchel, or may go for as long as the length of wool on the weights.

Thanks for the pic! Inspirational as I have a space that can something about that size too. We've also joined the local Woodworkers group so they can help me with the construction. What sort of timber did you use for the loom and what are the weights made of? Do you have actual plans I could...borrow?
