[...] Tea (although I need to). I’m also ready to get another scarf on the loom. The purple one from last week is done. I’ll show it to you as soon as I wash and block it. I had fun working on [...]

I have a Kromski Harp. Weaving is a blast, though warping is a bit of a pain.

My husband has just taken up weaving.

Nope, he never was a fiber arts guy before this. He simply remembered liking it from 3rd grade (many decades ago!). He tried it again, bought a Kromski Harp loom, similar to Sherri’s loom in the photo, and just loves it.

It’s been very fun for me to watch.

For those asking what you can make on this loom besides scarves, you can also make table runners, place mats, wash clothes and blankets. You’d need to sew woven strips together to get the desired blanket width, but that is apparently fairly simple (I don’t sew but that’s what I’ve been told!).

The scarves are beautiful. I’m curious besides a scarf what else can you make on the size loom that you did the scarf on.

It does look like it could be a bit addictive.

Beautiful scarf, Sheri!

I sure wish someone would come up with a cure for the bleeding colors! I haven’t had a dramatic disaster as het, but I cringe at the thought!

Can you make things other than a scarf on the looms? Just wondering, as I only have heard about and seen scarves and I make mostly other stuff. Thanks for any info.

Have a great weekend!

BTW – I was in the shop today and those Camp Loopy yarn color ways are just to die for! Really stunning!

I have to miss a Girlfriends weekend in CA, this weekend, because of bronchitus……sad, but sometimes that happens……

Have you ever used Retayn (not sure of spelling)? Have used it in quilting…..it works really well to set colors, better than Shout, I believe. Both scarves are beautiful!!
