Moving On - Tablet Weaving

It is over three years since my last post and I am still spinning and weaving.  I have become very interested in various methods of weaving bands.  I particularly enjoy tablet weaving although still very much a beginner.

I started tablet weaving using a small modified Ashford rigid heddle loom and then went on to use an inkle loom which I will continue to use alongside my new Don Betterley 'Better Loom'.


This is just a very simple pattern where all the cards are turned forward.  I wanted to test just how well the loom with weights eliminated the twist......it worked beautifully.  I have only had it for just over a week and am very pleased with it.

The photograph below is a road where I often walk with our dog Jack  He is a wonderful little dog who has become a very important member of our family.   We also have a cat now called Emily, she is the first cat we have ever had and she is a little star.  No doubt they will both feature in future blogs.
