I've had requests from some of my friends and family to talk about different ways they can weave when they have absolutely little to no budget for it. I'm not as familiar with rigid heddles, so this helped.
What was the book Michelle mentioned for three shaft patterns? I didn’t catch the author even with close captioning on. Came up as ER book. 😂 I thought I’d check my guild’s library for it…and keep an eye out for a used one for me. 😊
@@kathymoser9750 Hi Kathy! Congratulations on joining us! Because I am not a rigid heddle weaver, I can't speak to the various brands. But I can tell you that there isn't a bad one. Consider the size of the loom with what you're interested in weaving and you'll be golden! I'm excited to hear about what you make!
Can you use a 4 shaft table loom to weave fabric for sewing with? How do you begin I'd love to know how to do it. Currently I'd be happy to just plain weave from the yarn I've spun into fabric that I can sew.
Both!!!! I love the versatility of the four shaft and the convenience and portability of the rigid heddle looms:)
Ditto!!
such a great conversation!
@@jenniferfowler6713 Thank you! It was great fun!
This was explained beautifully..... I'll remember it when I need to talk about the differences.
@@conniepeterson122 Thanks so much, Connie! Glad it was helpful!

@@dianasmith8166 I'm so glad! I feel like used looms are always floating around as well, no matter what kind!
Thanks for taking the time to explain. Very interesting and learnt lots.
@@feltlikeitbydebs I'm so glad it was helpful!
I love my RHL, and I cant make a choice between my TL or my RHL. THEY BOTH ARE Precious to me. I love weaving on both.
@@amandahattingh1189 Fabulous!!!

@@sabrinasearsy1538 Great question! Hang on - I'll get that information for us!
The book is Weaving on Three Shafts, by Erica de Ruiter.
New to the weaving world. Wanting to start with a rigid heddle. How do I decide which brand to buy?

@@jessicabull334 Absolutely! Your only real restriction is the width of your loom. You could make some beautiful fabric with your handspun yarn!
I have both, and use both, it gives greater flexibility

Major unanswered question- the origin of her studio name 'Mingos Corner'.
@@WthrLdy Ah! It was her cat's name. When you see her logo, she uses a feline silhouette as part of it. Good question!
@ActonCreative I figured that, but did the wee thing have a fascination with a room Corner?
@ Look at you, asking the hard-hitting questions! I don't know - I'll find out!
@ActonCreative it just has to have a cute story, and I need to know it!
@ Ha! I see you.
