It is beautiful. I have a few none weaver friends who have become my 'warping buddies'. They are fascinated by the process of weaving and feel that they are participating in it when they help me wind on a warp. Of course, the offer of cake & tea or dinner helps.

That warp is well worth any fretting in the getting it beamed. Am looking forward to seeing what it becomes. I dress my looms solo and dream of a beaming page -- in a velvet outfit, with tights and little shoes, who is there are my command. *sigh* Ah well -- one can dream. :) Weave like an Egyptian, Jane LOVELY!

I can see several raddles in your photograph and wonder if they are permanently attached to your loom. There seem to be differing opinions about how close raddle pins should be placed. I would like to own a Leclerc raddle made from strong hardwood and corrosion resistant long metal pins spaced about 1/2 inch apart, or 2 dents per inch; or a Schacht raddle with plated pins inserted every inch but also with holes drilled every half inch with enough extra pins to allow for half-inch spacing. Wish they were available here. Hi Karen. I can see several raddles in your photograph and wonder if they are permanently attached to your loom.

I am a new weaver, and I did not learn how to use a raddle, but I am beginning to think that I need to incorporate it into my practice - it seems to save so many headaches!
