    Great job. “I” even understand now. I first learned on a floor loom, years ago, and Ive always wanted to get back into weaving. You inspired me, and I think I’ll start looking for a table loom. 👍🏻.

      Jeannie, what a huge compliment! Thank you so much! It would be fabulous for you to get back into it! The world needs weavers, just like you! I can't wait to hear more about your weaving adventures in the future!

    Can you make a project using the full 15” on the reed, or does the project need to be smaller than the 15”?

      Great question! You can load it up, using the entire width! Absolutely!
      But I'll toss this in, too. When you plan to use the entire width, keep an eye on your heddles. Make sure you have enough for your project before you begin threading them. And if you have extra heddles, feel free to leave them on the shafts, but you want to be sure all your warp yarns travel straight.
      Here's what I mean. If your extra heddles take up 1" of space at the end of your shaft, your warp yarns will be forced to move around them, which is not ideal.
      So instead, as you thread your heddles, work the extras in between the yarns. This will allow you to avoid the hassle of taking off heddles while still gracefully using your entire width.
      Thanks so much for the question! It's perfect for a future episode! Just let me know if you need further clarification!

      Hi Carol! That's a really great question! I don't currently have a public list. But if that's something you think would be helpful, I can work on it! Thanks so much!
