    It's just so nice & comfy to hear my accent on a UA-cam video. As soon as she chirped up it was one of those "Oh, Hey! No wait..." moments ☺️

    Would really have liked to see the other end to see how it comes together on ends.

      Like how weaving worked before the industrial revolution. I always imagined a far more laborious process.

      @@QlueDuPlessis It was a more laborious process! This is just one of the more simple methods. In fact, weaving in many parts of Europe in the past was something that was mainly left to men because the looms were so hard to operate. However, weaving hasn't really changed much! If you look up how to weave on a floor loom, you'll get a lot more information on how weaving used to be.

    I had done a rag rug with old T-shirts cut in threads and my pegs were old marker pens.

    Cool! I'd expected a tapestry loom with the warp tensioned on pegs (another device that goes back to the Neolithic!) but this design was totally different, and I hadn't seen one before.

      I'm not sure. Peg loom weaving is older though. JB
