Weaving Strickler

[@dorispascal6996]

It's very interesting, I lover all your video. Thanks for sharing I am from Canada

I share your pain re the tie up. I have a Swedish countermarche loom and also have to get down on the floor to do the tie up. My floor is ceramic tiles….. I have to kneel on a cushion but it still hurts! But I love my loom and I love weaving. I got started weaving because of you, and your early videos that inspired me that I could actually do this. So thank you from the bottom of my heart. Incidentally thanks for the tip re the Strickler facebook group, I’ll look that one up as I struggle to imagine colour on her designs.

I'm warping this one right now. I appreciate how easy the warp is. ;-)

Happy New Year Andy

Thank you for this video - and I feel your pain. Certain parts of set up are hard on the body.

[@stuward3046]

Happy new year, Andy. I’m quite chuffed that you showed my tea towels on the loom as an exemplar. Keep up the good work on your loom Best regards, Stuart

I would have passed this pattern by looking at the black and white photo...can't wait to see the magic that happens as you weave in color !! Happy New Year

[@rainbowgal8047]

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate you. I also lay the reed down to sley it.. I like the idea of the c- clamps. Much sturdier than the old adjustable curtain and drapery rods I use. And even though I have a four shaft jack loom, it's still a literal pain to get down and get it done; so I really empathize with you!

[@terrysharing]

Very interesting as usual Andy. I thought too that the pattern looked plain in black and white but when I got the closer look I saw the texture and pattern that could emerge. Then when you showed the color photos, that won me over for sure. I've said it before that I would never have the patience to thread a loom and even more so get down on the floor to work. I'm pretty sure I would lay my head down to take a break and instantly fall asleep! Looking forward to the weaving and final product.

Agree, hate to set up the treadles!

[@tanyastottlemyre2704]

I love to watch how you set up and weave. I am saving up for my first floor loom. Currently have a rigid heddle.

Looks like the combinations of Color are limitless…thanks for sharing 🇨🇦❤️

no crawling on the floor for me any more I switched my spring loom for an AVL home loom, all side tie ups ,no more faffing under the loom ,best thing I ever did. I agree it was a pain climbing under the loom I broke my hand and found it extremely difficult, in the end I just gave up and sold the loom.

Happy New Year! I was excited to see this topic since my son gave me the Strickler book for Christmas. Looking forward to seeing how the pattern works up. 🥰

I have a new Spring II - starting to thread my third project. Moved from a Baby Wolf and agree the treadle tie up is a PIA, but everything else is about the Spring is lovely! I’ve decided to leave the teksolv cords on the lamms, just pushed out of the way to the right and when I do the tie-up, I’ll use them kind of like heddles and move them in from the right (top or bottom) and tie-up accordingly. Saves the time and yoga moves needed to get the cords back on the lamms. 😅

[@lizkimber]

Yay. A new video!!!!

[@Miezekatzenfan-yv8kq]

Happy healthy New Year to you and your family! Look at tie up the treadles positivly. You own a Spring. This is so much easier then tie up a Glimakra Standard. We learn that in my weaving class. Very difficult. I am very glad, I own one, too

[@denisehigby2554]

How long have you been weaving? I love watching your videos because you speak so normal pleasantly! 😊

[@curmudgeon66]

somewhere around 30 years, although I know longer remember exactly when I started. Thanks for watching my videos

[@tomwalkingstick5395]

Very nice

[@weavenut]

Have you seen louet now do legs that can raise the loom for spring and David 3. I wish I could have them but I have a David 2.

[@vitralesdelsol]

No entiendo porque amarran los pedales. En un telar con teclas o clavijas se puede hacer este patrón?

[@yvonnetomenga5726]

@curmudgeon66 • I'm so glad you're doing towels for the New Year. They're less intimidating than some of your other projects, but you always choose great colors. I can't wait to see how this pattern works up. Have a Happy, healthy New Year. Take care of yourself. I'm a little worried about your cough with all the diseases moving around.
