From Gerry- I just found your channel and I love what you're doing. I have not done too much with art yarn but now that I see how beautiful a weaving is I may just start in again. That would make a stunning shawl. Be blessed.

@@faithfuleweknittingpodcast Hi Hazel, Thankyou so much for your lovely reply. Thankyou so much for the Heart ♥ Sending Heart ❤️ back to you. I think losing mojo and re-finding it can be hard sometimes. It often takes us in a different direction and doing something that we wouldn't have really thought of doing. I only started Spinning in 2021 using Drop Spindles. Then I got the Nano 1.1 eWheel in the September and then I got the eWheel 6 for Christmas. I'm so glad that you did get your Creative mojo back, I don't know how you find time to do all the things you do. Thankyou for sharing your video podcasts, I love them all. Happy Spinning, Knitting and Weaving Fibre Friend 🎡🐑🥰❣️ Take care and stay safe Hope you have a very Blessed Week 🙏🙏 Lots of love and Blessings Jen xxxx ❤️❤️❤️🫂🫂🫂🙏🙏🙏🌼🌼

Hello! Fun to see art yarn woven up. I’m a new spinner and would love to make a wall hanging out of art yarn…. I have a 16” Kromski Presto loom, and the 16” Ashford heddles do work on it just fine. In my (limited) experience, a flopping heddle usually means I’ve not tightened up my warp enough.

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

Hi Kamala...welcome to the spinning & weaving world.... its a wonderful world to explore....😀😀 The warp on the loom is tight but the heddles are just slightly too short i must have bought some dud ones.... 😀The ones on my samplet loom are great I have the kromski heddles for the ashford with no problems...just the luck of the draw i guess....😀 Your wall hangings sound fun you should definitely give it a try...❤️have a blessed week❤️😊

[@lenorerhodes8110]

Great video Hazel. It is going to be a lovely piece. I think it would make a lovely wall hanging. ❤️🌺

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

Hi lenore....glad you enjoyed it...😀Now i've put all that yarn on the loom i'm thinking wall hanging too....😀but we shall see...😀

[@mariakirchner6437]

Oh Hazel, the weaving is looking so stunning😍🤩. I never tire of looking at the beautiful art yarn you created. It really will be a work of art when it is all done. Thanks for the clear instructions, I find it all very fascinating and am learning a lot. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity and knowledge, much appreciated. Sorry you missed the sunshine, hope there are more sunny days on the way for you, sending love and peace😊💖🌞🌄

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

Hi Maria...You are very welcome.... 😀I really loving how its turning out so far....lots of love hazel xx💖

[@troutsdalefarm]

Loving these colours! Would to see how you warped it please, cant just find it, any chance of the link, thank you

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

Hi Thanks for stopping by sorry for the delay in replying...this is the link for when I warped the loom but it does also include some footage of a spinning wheel purchase too... 😊have a lovely week...😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5fHooeiZ76birM

[@troutsdalefarm]

@@faithfuleweknittingpodcast thank you so much

[@traceytowner176]

Hi Hazel!❤Thank you for the video! I want to buy a loom for art yarn, but haven’t done so yet. I was looking at the rigid heddle loom from ashford. Is yours 24”? Could I ask what is the difference between rigid heddle and knitters loom? I notice you don’t have to open any spacing but just put the yarn through? Thank you! I have so much sun here in Tucson, Arizona. I love rainy overcast days because we don’t get many of those in a years time! Best to you!

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

Hi, Tracy welcome to my channel it's lovely to have you here.... ❤️🙂 My heddle does have to move up & down to make a gap to thread the yarn through but the camera must not have shown that very well......it can be a bit of a struggle sometimes with the bulky yarns but it does go through ok.....🙂🙂I would recommend either I don't think there is much difference between the 2 really they both have a rigid heddle but the only difference is they are made to be able to weave ordinary knitting yarns into the fabric but I do that on my rigid heddle loom too... I bought my Kromski because it is foldable & at the time Ashford didn't do a foldable loom but now they do. I have a 24 inch & a 36-inch Kromski & a 10-inch Ashford they are all rigid heddles & the heddles are interchangeable between the Kromski & Ashford but the fit is slightly different by about 1 or 2mm ... I think the Kromski is an excellent loom & the accessories are readily available the 36inch can be a bit bulky to use depends on what you will want to weave but I love using art yarns on all of them... ❤️🙂 Do let me know if you want any more help choosing Im happy to help if I can... but definitely take the plunge it opens up a whole new world.... have a lovely week & enjoy the sunshine...lots of love from a cool autumnal Wales...❤️❤️🙂🙂🐓🐓🐓🐓🐑🐑🐑🍃🍃🍃🍃

[@traceytowner176]

@@faithfuleweknittingpodcast Thank you so much for your kind response! I can hardly wait to try my hand at weaving on my very own loom soon. I believe I would mostly like to make wall hangings and scarfs at this time. I am thinking a 24” may be a good choice since I can have the option to go as wide as 24” or smaller on the same loom. I have been looking at the Ashford Heddle Looms from the Woolery.

[@faithfuleweknittingpodcast]

Hi Tracy...you're very welcome....🙂how exciting Im very excited for you....❤️🙂A 24 inch loom is a good choice & you can make an uncountable amount of things on it.... I made some fabric to make a dress on my 24" loom I made it from handspun Jacob sheep fleece it is lovely fabric I just need to get the courage to cut into it...😊😊. Ashford are great looms & spinning wheels you will have great fun....🙂🙂 Enjoy the rest of your week & happy crafting ...lots of love from an autumnal Wales...❤️❤️🍃🍃🐌🐌🐓🐓🐓🐓🐑🐑🐑🦋🦋🙂🙂
