Loom!

Aug 07, 2008 20:11

Last Saturday, aided and abetted by the kindness of strangers, I bought a loom and, using some acrylic yarn leftover from a scarf I knitted for my pseudo-nephew, I wove my first scarf the same day. In the process I discovered that several essential parts had either been left at the shop or not included in my second-hand purchase to begin with, and also that you don't really need a raddle for thin widths and that a jarrah plastic bag 'handle' makes a perfectly acceptable shuttle for the same.

I'm now working on a slightly more complicated weave using leftover acrylic yarn from a scarf I knitted for my pseudo-niece and keeping a close eye out for any Cenorath-style alterations to the fabric of reality.
