Finally….weaving again

It's been a little while since I have visited here.  It's also been a longer while since I have sat at the loom without struggling with it.  This is my smaller Macomber B loom and I love so much about it but the hook tie up on the treadles makes me crazy at times. 

With the last set of towels I made, one of the hooks kept popping off the harness which had me crawling under the loom multiple times to fix it and nothing I did would make it stay on that darn lam.
Needless to say it's the reason why I took a breather from weaving.

Last week I kept looking at the loom thinking I should dust myself off and get back on the horse…umm…loom.  I watched my favorite weaving teacher Jane Stafford's videos and jumped back in!  In my enthusiasm I wound a 10 yard warp (biggest one yet for me).  Thankfully it went on the loom smoothly and the towels are weaving up without a hitch..yay!

It feels good to be weaving again!!
