Thank you! I do have the Strickler 8-shaft weaving book. But my loom is only an 8-shaft loom. But so far I’m super happy with it!

I was on vacation in Latvia in May. The warp is a single wool thread from a local factory, Latvian wool. About sock yarn weight. I bought quite a few skeins while I was there, beautiful colours - it’s not merino, so it’s not extra soft. But I’m sure it’ll make a nice warm and cozy shawl.

Very cool! Where’s your pattern from? I’m new to my 8-shaft loom and I’m still struggling to recognise what draft that might be.

If you’ve already got the skill sets to do all those other crafts, there’s even less of a reason to start with a scarf. For an absolute beginner in everything yo do with yarn it probably depends on the personality; but yeah, if the sock is the goal - go for it. Good start, it looks very promising!

Ohhhhh… 😍

Good job!!! It looks great!

Oh, sounds good, thanks 😊

I’m actually fine if there’s not a lot of action, but I have to really like the characters then and the way they make choices/think about life… I don’t know, it just didn’t grip me. I might still finish it to see what it’s all about. I haven’t read the trilogy you mentioned. Recommended then?

😁😁😁 Mine admitted that if I didn’t like it a lot by now it might just not be for me. 🤷‍♀️

I’m about two thirds in and I’m still on the fence about it. I do like it, but it doesn’t really draw me in. It’s been a couple of days since I’ve last opened it. My husband really liked it though.

Thank you! I’m in love with the colours, too.

Right now I’m scratching my weaving itch. But yeah, it might be in my future 😁

Ich glaube, unsere sich hauptsächlich verantwortlich fühlende Person geht regelmäßig gucken und stempelt, was neu ist.

Bei uns auch. Auch wir stempeln jetzt.

Ohh… so nice! That is one fibre craft I’ve yet to attempt!
