A friend has offered to sell us a floor loom that his wife used years ago. I've always wanted to learn to weave. I started looking for classes and found two available this summer, a long weekend and a 5 day class with the Weavers Guild in Minneapolis. I'd like to start getting basic info first. Do you know any good books or websites that could help me? Where do I start?

Cindy Lou, You will love weaving. I'm a real newbie too, I've been weaving off and on for 3 years, but don't always have time. I purchased a used Schacht Baby Wolf this early spring and Have done a couple projects so far. The best book I have, and was recommended to me,is Learning to Weave by Deborah Chandler http://www.amazon.com/Learning-Weave-Deborah-Chandler/dp/159668139X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1274022527&sr=8-1 (I have the hardcover version Check out your local library and see if this will be a good resource for you, I turn to it from time to time when something comes up for me.

Any weavers out there?
