Be Consistent
I’ve said it before and will say it again – more than once, guaranteed. If you can’t be perfect, be consistent.

Body, that is. The photo is from the photo shoot Interweave did for The Efficient Weaver. One of the reasons I particularly wanted to do this DVD (now downloadable course) was to show proper position and posture at the loom. I so often see photos on the internet of people sitting at the loom in…
