I love the first ones you did and my mouth literally dropped open when I saw the Noro project. Holy smokes. What a wonderful gift from Elise! :) And what a cutie she is, too. Mobility scares me a little bit, I'm not gonna lie. But they look so adorable toddling around!Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16273727983110361664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542845774706050825.post-30083423435344391062011-09-03T16:30:53.336-04:002011-09-03T16:30:53.336-04:00I have been weaving for years and love the look an...I have been weaving for years and love the look and feel of the results. I still wear the first scarves I wove, including some things I wore while pregnant with the child shortly to be 25!<br />Crazily, one of my favorite things to knit are dishtowels and it is the one thing my mother, now 86, requests!<br />Enjoy your love of fiber and keep writing as you are an inspiration to many!Helle K.

I am SO impressed by your projects and can't believe you are a relative beginner. I received an Ashford Knitter's Loom two Christmases ago, and have only done 2 pitiful projects: a very wonky scarf and a small discloth. I am just not "getting" how to do this comfortably or correctly. I think I would benefit greatly from a class, but there are none to be had in my area. And I've not found any online videos that have helped me yet. Would you mind sharing with us what you found helpful to your learning process? Warping the loom, of course, is the biggie. Although my loom came with a nicely illustrated how-to, I just find it lacking in some of the finer points or questions that I have.<br />Thank you so much for sharing! I wish I could borrow you for an hour to see how you do what you do! Your scarves are just gorgeous, and I particularly loved the Noro one.<br />I'm such an avid knitter, and I guess I really thought I could just easily "take" to weaving, but I haven't found it to be the case at all. You are inspiring me to take it up and try again!seashoreknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07313444169419481891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542845774706050825.post-77103573897838056302011-09-01T12:25:32.463-04:002011-09-01T12:25:32.463-04:00Your weaving looks so neat, the colours are gorgeo...Your weaving looks so neat, the colours are gorgeous too.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06744601510746298605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5542845774706050825.post-41892882088286709572011-09-01T09:30:05.308-04:002011-09-01T09:30:05.308-04:00Yesterday's post about your new loom and Noro ...Yesterday's post about your new loom and Noro was inspirational.
