Hi Weavers! Ask any weaver about their least favorite part of the process, and many will answer without hesitation: "warping the loom!" Warping is often seen as tedious, complicated, and fraught with potential for mistakes. But for me, warping is an essential and satisfying step in the weaving process, the foundation on which every weaving project depends. A well-made warp sets the tone for a successful and joyful weaving experience. Continue reading......
