Fully Dressed Loom


Day 46 (bonus edition): With a full-sized floor loom taking up a third of my small crafts room, it's difficult to get an image showing the entire set-up. I thought I'd include this face-on shot of the loom fully dressed, including one of the shuttles I use for weaving. There are many different types of shuttle and weavers will argue for their favorite styles. The advantages of this type include ease of winding and low cost. On the flip side, the tips have a tendency to catch on warp threads and, if thrown too vigorously, can snap a thread.
