Any weavers out there? I recently started weaving on a rigid heddle loom. I'd like to meet some other weavers.

Hi Sherri,
I do both, harness looms and a rigid heddle,there are some great online short videos with rigid heddle.

also on ravelry.com there are a couple of forums on rigid heddle.
There are some beautiful things I've seen made on them.

As far as videos go, I have a Kromski rigid and the New Voyager Trading Company has some good videos, but I also used the book Rigid Heddle Weaving too. Right now, I am making a plain weave scarf with some Mountain Colors yarn I had. I plan to use up some more yarns I have around, and then I plan to play with rayon chenille!

Hi Sherri, I do some weaving. I have a tapestry loom and a table loom and my other loom can be a 12 harness but at present, I am using it as a 4 harness loom. I think in some of my older post on my blog you can see my looms and some of the things I have made. I really love to weave and spin and knit but it just seems like I run out of hours in the day.
What are you weaving on now?

Could you tell me are there any good videos out there?

Hey there! There's another Farmgirl from Macon who replied to my poundcake post. Maybe we can all do lunch when school is out! What a small world!
