Recently I impulsively bought myself an Ashford Knitter's Loom. James, possibly fearing an evening spent helping to set the thing up, wisely suggested that perhaps I should start by learning from someone, rather than just having a stab at it on my own. And to this end he very sweetly arranged for me to have a lesson with Ali Holloway, who has been weaving for 25 years.

Lesson learned? Weaving is great fun! It's really fast! And you can achieve so much variation so easily! I'm looking forward to getting my own loom set up soon.
