I just got some Leclerc shuttles to use with my Leclerc table loom, and they are lovely to hold and beautifully made. I have one Ashford shuttle which nose dives as Cally describes, but also have used Schacht boat shuttles and find them very good to use. This is a beautiful piece of weaving. I guess you are happy and getting on well with the new Toika loom? I am very interested in your comment about shuttles.

But I got a Bluster Bay shuttle last summer in the States and it is a dream - and a very hefty dream at that. The weight really does make a difference, doesn't it? I love your colours. Just the thing for this bright end-of-winter day! (At least, I hope it's the end...)

Your scarf looks delicious - beautiful colours.
