I could watch this every day. At the Home Textile Tool Museum we sing this song as part of our annual waulking. Love how quickly you can do your weaving.
The weaving is a simple plain weave or over, under...so the weaver has to make note of the pattern while weaving...just the same as if you were weaving with the loom in the traditional position.
Nice music you have playing in the background. I loved watching the rhythm of your fingers as they picked up the threads. What will the finished weaving become?

BEAUTIFUL!

You can look at the previous row. Where the last row went under, the next row must go over.

How do you know your picking up the right theads when your picking up form the top like that?
That is the voice of Kathleen MacGinnes in one of the Highland Sessions..singing a wool waulking song. The finished weaving will become a shawl.
I can't locate that song anywhere, do you have an album name? Would be good for spinning too
