a weaving machine sitting on top of a table next to some scissors and other items

I started weaving with a used 4" Beka loom and disliked it because of the floating heddle. I looked at the design of an Emilia (I now own one) and made a simple modification with $2 worth of wood from hobby lobby and large rubber bands from broccoli. I lashed a dowel to the top of the heddle to create a hanging bar. This improved functioning immensely and I was able to try out a lot of patterns while learning. You will need a drill or router to create the holes on the uprights. I used spring…

The Ashford Brooklyn 4-shaft table loom is an excellent next step if you’re ready to move beyond a rigid heddle loom and explore more complex weave structures. It’s also a fantastic starting point for anyone new to multi-shaft weaving... the skills you learn on this loom will translate seamlessly to a larger floor loom or another table loom with more shafts. I’ve finally had the chance to use this loom, and I have so much to share! #tableloom #weavingloom #loomreview #ashfordloom

Kyle here at Paradise Fibers give a crash coarse on warping a Beka 10 inch Rigid Heddle weaving loom. Yes, this loom is meant for children generally but is actually kinda hard to warp and very little instruction comes with the loom. This loom can be handy for quick swatches when you don't want to lose a whole bunch of yarn warping, etc. This ...

a weaving machine with several different colors of yarn on it

I've been interested in weaving since I was a child and this summer went to a number of craft shows where weaving and spinning were demonstrated. I treated myself this fall to a Rigid Heddle Loom from Tabby and Tweed (https://www.tabbyandtweed.co.uk/shop-rigid-heddle-loom-kits-and-accessories). I selected a kit that included loom, instructions and DK cotton yarn to make this spectacular scarf. I'm hooked! #rigidheddleweaving #ridigheddleloomweaving @tabbyandtweed #weavingart #scarfdesign

Direct warping is a method of measuring the yarn for your warp at the same time that you are putting it on the loom. The usual method of direct warping - and there are many free videos on YouTube to show how to do this - is to clamp an vertical peg to a table (some use the top of a chair back) that is the distance from the apron dowel of your loom that the warp is to be long, and warp from the back of the loom tying your first warp thread to the apron dowel and then passing a loop of that…
