Have fallen away from weaving, but you have energized my creativity anew. Don’t have a vari-dent reed but will do the best I can with what I do have for now. Nice to see you Esther, you taught me a lot on the Craftsy platform.

[@BorgaFamily]

I just adore her!

[@cindybills677]

Thanks for this video, Esther and Ashford! I enjoyed watching the techniques with the art yarn and seeing the usefulness of the vari-dent reed. I appreciated getting new ideas from your explanation and demonstration. :)

[@ritas3177]

A great video. I love your top. As someone with a lot of tailspun and coiled yarn I cannot wait to try this! Thanks so much.

[@lindagerhard8381]

Hi, Esther! I've recently begun weaving again and this technique is so versatile! Thanks for the great demo!

[@marinamartinez6886]

You made it look so easy! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@debala6367]

Thank you for the excellent video. Your demonstration is so clear and informative. Love the vari-dent reed and now need to purchase one :-). And...now I'll have to explore spinning yarn. Great job!

[@emmahamilton1514]

Thanks, Esther, that's inspiring :)

[@leetravathan]

This is really helpful. I was trying to figure out how to do it on my own... but the video is what I needed... along with a couple more products from Ashford.

I never fully understood the vari dent reed system. Thanks for showing this, It makes me really want one! I love my new Ashford loom! I love the techniques and demos shown on Ashford videos, they are always very helpful! Thank you.

[@valrog6924]

Same! On all points, I'm about to take my 2nd project off my new 32" Ashford RHL. My smaller loom is a Cricket, I like Ashford better. Gotta go look up varident reeds now and see which loom I need to get one for!

[@augustafanti4182]

Molto interessante ma sarebbe utile anche una versione in italiano.grazie e complimenti.

[@Passioakka]

NIce video! Thank You! But why do You need to have background music? With disabled hearing it is VERY annoying, especially if the voice recording is not so good (this recording was excellent).

[@huggableearth9832]

I will keep this in mind, my apologies, i have really tried to listen to all of my viewers and take in the pointers and tips they have for me, be cause i am a crafter lol, not a videographer lol... tho it would be handy to be both. thank you and no more background music :)

[@imcarmel]

Why on earth is she weaving so close to the heddle?

[@huggableearth9832]

Thats a most excellent question... who can say what the mad woman is thinking lol... i am going to be completely real with you right now.... i am not a pro lol... I think i shall back away from that heddle next time :) thank you!

[@darkkristyna]

I dont know man... this looks like a hot mess to me...
