Learning Ways
You Tube Channel There are many video clips on You Tube, some of them better than others. I don’t claim mine are the best, but I have added my voice to the internet. Everyone learns differently and the recent influx of new weavers, either via rigid heddle looms or baby wraps means that the population…

New Video
Got a video showing myself beaming a 9 meter long place mat warp on my You Tube Channel. Unfortunately You Tube has made some upgrades recently and it’s not showing on my listings of videos so best to follow the link above. Have I mentioned recently that I <3 my warping valet?

Smooth Weaving
This morning I opened my email inbox and found the following message: “I was weaving a scarf last night and realized something awesome.

Video Clip – Repair Thread
Well, I got the video editing software installed yesterday, with many thanks for the help from my webmaster. You know, the one who lives 500 miles away? The man is magic! 😉 So this morning I did a quick test video clip and was very pleased that the upgrade is almost identical to the way…

YouTube
I’ve just spent a frustrating 30 minutes but finally managed to get a YouTube account that YouTube would actually recognize and uploaded a couple of videos. http://www.youtube.com/user/LauraAnnFry1 A friend suggested that it would be good to post some videos there as well as to my blog and website.

On Soapboxes
about 30 yards of scarves….I have two soapboxes – one for each foot, obviously. :^) One is wet finishing. The other is issues of ergonomics/efficiency. Handweavers can in no way compete with industry and looms that weave hundreds of picks per minute. A handweaver is therefore by definition making ‘slow’ cloth. People tell me they…
