I really love this tea towel I’ve started weaving in a group project with the Burr House Spinners and Weavers Guild. #craftsky #weaving #weavingteatowels #floorloom

Ok so this is actually from a couple of days ago now but I'm just getting caught up on posting alltheplaces. My second project on the Pendleton floor loom is in motion! #weaving #slowcloth #floorloom #fiberarts

She's home! My refurbished 4 shaft 30" Pendleton floor loom made the trip from my Parents' house to my home studio safe and sound earlier today. #weaving #fiberarts #floorloom

I'm officially in my floor loom weaving era!!!! Unspeakably proud of this wonky little bit of weaving. Now it's practice, practice, practice. But not until at least Monday. Resting time. #weaving #slowcloth #floorloom #fiberarts

Floor loom reassembly is complete! A couple of small things to dial in still but that will happen Sat when I go over to put the test warp on. Tomorrow is definitely a rest day! #weaving #floorloom

We got so much done today on the 4 shaft Pendleton floor loom with installing replacement parts and doing most of the major reassembly! Rest day tomorrow but we should be able to tackle the rest on Thursday. Initial function tests are looking good! #weaving #floorloom #fiberarts

A four shaft Pendleton X frame floor loom is sitting unfolded and largely disassembled on a blue tarp in the kitchen of Kelli's childhood home. The loom has been freshly cleaned and the metal parts have been oiled.

Yesterday a dear friend passed along to me a 4 shaft 30" weaving width Pendleton floor loom!! She needs some TLC, a couple of small repairs & some replacement parts but my Parents are helping me with the refurb and we've already made a ton of progress! #weaving #slowcloth #floorloom #fiberarts

Pile of towels that are red, green, gold, and white, hopefully looking like candy canes.

Got 12 candy cane towels on last warp. They are cut apart but still need proper hemming. Trying to have some Christmas crafts done in time this year #weaving #floorloom

Yarns in Christmas colours at back of loom, close to the heddles.

Played yarn chicken and won!! Got to the very end of my warp but got another full candy cane towel. #weaving #floorloom

Spending a relaxing Sunday at my floor loom! Making linen bread bags (Northern Ireland 16/2 linen -natural, French 9/2 linen - black, brick). ♥️♥️

Striped warp in shades of burgundy, orange, green, lavender, cream on a wooden countermarche floor loom. Weft is woven with stripes of beige, brown and cream. Pattern is 8 shaft M's and W's twill, woven in 8/2 cotton for tea towels.

Last one!! 😰

Dark blue, gold, pink and light blue striped hand-woven tea towel.

Finished woven tea towel from a weavers guild group project I was part of at the Burr House. We put on enough warp for eight tea towels and we all wove one. #craftsky #weaving #weavingteatowels #floorloom

Work in progress on the warp-weighted floor loom. Two sections of weaving separated by a cardboard strip.

Took long enough, but finally got a consistent width going. Glad I gave myself plenty of warp. #10 Cotton warp, 40/2 linen and DK-ish handspun bamboo single alternating weft. #weaving #warpweightedloom #floorloom

I cannot figure out a solution other than to cut off the two outside (brown) sections. These are for tea towels, so I'm ok with them being a bit narrower, but does anyone have any better ideas? 3/3

Cotton striped warp (brown yellow, rose, purple, sand, lavender and then mirror) undulating twill, with purple and lavender weft blocks.

Well, it seems this first #towel is going to be a color gamp - yellow weft in prior picture, purple, and lavender in this one.

#Weaving #handwoven #fiberart #floorloom

Start of undulating twill warp with striped warp. Initial spacing and as close as possible plain weave hem, with about 2" of pattern. A couple of T pins hold repaired warp threads.

I think we're finally there. Had to fix a couple of slaying errors, and the hem is as close to plain weave as this threading goes.

8/2 cotton, 24 epi x 10 yards for towels. Fibonacci sequence stripes. Undulating twill #Strickland number 216

Weft faced weave in green and white.

Weft faced Roman key weave in green and white.

I’m starting to really appreciate weft faced designs. Working on some trivets with wool to practice various patterns. #weaving #floorloom #menweaving

Out with the old! I’m replacing these uneven treadle tie ups with shiny new pegs and texolv cords. I’m very excited to weave with a clean shed! #loommaintenance #weaving #textiles #woolwillsavetheworld #loom #floorloom

A Saori floor loom with black warp threads

I made it to the art studio yesterday, only to discover that the elves hadn’t finished dressing the 8 shaft loom, darn it.

However, now that my kid moved out. I now have room to bring the Saori loom home.

It never fails. If I'm in the studio playing with string, I have the full attention of at least one of my su-purr-visors.

Threads wound onto spools to weight them as hanging from a loom in centre of photo. Left of photo shows dark honeycomb shelves holding yarns. Top right of photo shows threads wound onto loom.

Added threads to this warp - thankfully have some lovely spools made by my dad to weight these threads off the loom. Had to add threads because messed up counting, even with a clicker to help.

A floor loom with an in-progress weaving project. The main color is an undyed white merino wool, the secondary color is a dark gray cotton. There is a small section of red warp at either end. The weaving draft is partly visible at the top right corner.

Sampling with some leftover warp, all practice for an overshot project I’m planning. Warp is store bought cotton, weft is handspun merino.

Ends all tied together! Time to detangle and wind on (tomorrow!) 🥱🌜
