I love how real you are. Thank you for your great tips. I’m just getting back into weaving. I have a loom I got in high school. 1976. OMG where did time go.

I watched the whole video to find out that the diagonal lines are just visual and not textured 😂 I want to make some textured dish clothes and kind of hoped to see a pattern. But I am not disappointed, I had fun watching and your peg “board” is awesome !

Well tracking is textured, but just completely random. Texture with a rhl is very challenging. It usually means either another heddle, or string heddles or maybe a pickup stick

​@FiberLoveDiary Thank you for explaining! ❤ I am about getting evrxrhng together to get my small loom warped tomorrow latest 😅

I love watching creative things happening! I know how to do these, but I MUST watch every time. Pretty colors. Blessings.

What a beautiful day! I’m glad you warped your loom on the porch so we could see the sunshine and hear the birds. Plus, Lorenzo looks amazing! Very cool dish cloths. I reeeeeally need to finish the practice dish towel on my loom so I can try other things. Have a wonderful week!

Another wonderful video- thank you. I made dishcloths after I saw your last video on them and we love them - they are so perfect for what we want and they wear soo well! You are always an inspiration 🙏😊

So want to learn to weave now!

I love that you name plants also...we have a fig tree named Figgy Smalls. People think I am crazy but oh well.

Looking forward to the build a batt! Love the dishcloths. You make me want to bite the bullet and buy a loom!

They turned out great Trish! I totally agree with you, my hand woven dish towels and dishcloths are tons better than anything I’ve ever bought at the store! And they wash up beautifully as well! What a lovely gift for your son!

I absolutely love how these turned out I think I need to get me some cotton and make me some dish clothes and tea towels they truly are gorgeous 😍

This video is what prompted this 25 year knitter to take some weaving lessons. 🥰🧶❤️ Yesterday I bought a 25” Schacht loom!!! I’m super excited to make all of my own woven fabrics! Dishcloths and dish towels are first. I’m heading to Walmart to get some Sugar and Cream cones as soon as the oiling of my new loom is cured! Yippee!

I do not have a ridged heddle loom stand and from this video I think it would be beneficial for me. Great tutorial

I love watching your weaving videos even though I don't weave lol

your dish cloths turned our very well. When you were showing us your lemon tree I started singing the Lemon Tree song and now I can’t get it out of my head 😂.

Love weaving dishcloths. Thanks for new ideas. I have woven shorter dishcloths when running near the last of the warp and I really really like those half sizes too. So now, I deliberately make more of the half ones as well. All make great gifts….in this case Christmas!

You are so cute!! A lemon tree for your birthday that's what I want for Mothers Day next year Lol. I enjoy your videos so much!

Springtime beautiful! My son is also about to move out and I have plans to make some dishcloths for him. I also want to make some accent pillow covers. And upholster some antique chair cushions for him. :) empty nest projects.

They're beautiful! Now I want to make a batch. :)

I'm all about the chartreuse too...especially with the other colors you've been using with it. I do like the other one too. Seems like I have something similar from the shop. So funny...didn't remember but as soon as I saw it I thought...lemon tree. Nice dish cloths as always. Always like seeing how they fill in after washing.

Love to see the weaving. I was excited for a minute when I saw the new video, thought the new PF box came. But I'm always excited to see you and what you are doing.

The dish cloths look amazing. Would make nice looking tea towels or maybe placemats.

Don’t you just love the secondary texture pattern that happens with this thickness cotton after washings?! It caught me by surprise last year. Nice tutorial.

One day I hope to be caught up enough on other projects to do dish cloths and towels. 🙃

The dish clothes and tea Towers are gorgeous 😍👍

Lovely- based on your suggestion I did some dish cloths like this but my vintage machine doesn’t do zig zag- I did a straight stitch- together with the hem stitch it is more than enough. I also got some if that “tracking” after washing. I thought it was my mistake. Thanks for sharing. Gracias

I love watching the weaving….. but I promised myself I can’t have another fiber/yarn obsession

Peaches n Creme from Walmart is a different diameter than Sugar n Cream. I noticed it on a project of towels/washcloths I did that were white and brown/multicolor for my mom. It came out okie in the end, I'll probably be the only one that notices the difference. She uses the towels every day and enjoys them. I like your finishing technique better than what I did. I did not like the bulky turn over and sew. I have a serger, but I don't like serged edges on wash cloths. Thank you for the instructions! ❤

😍 so pretty! And definitely no ironing, on camera it almost looks like you’ve got a patterned weft instead of plain weave. Gorgeous! Edit to add: commenting while watching means you answer me - the tracking looks very cool 😀

I like the tracking too, but some people get all upset.

I just made some dishcloths but didn’t even think about hem stitching. I already washed them. I hope they last!

Ironic that you released a dishcloth weaving video today, as I am in the black hole of warping a scarf on my RH loom today as well. Before I started I thought about switching it and doing dishcloths but decided to stick with my original plan for the scarf and have been wishing I'd listened to my instinct for the last couple of hours as I un-warp the giant mess I made.🤦‍♀️Yours look great though❤️, I'm definitely doing dishcloths after this gets corrected, woven and off the loom🤞😆😆

I really love your videos, I am a new weaver and have learned so much from watching you. Do you possibly have a video that shows how you hem the last dish cloth? To me, because there is no gap, I just can't see it and can't seem to get the pattern straight in my head.

❤️❤️❤️ I can’t afford another craft. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Those turned out beautiful! Thinking I might make my grandaughter some as she is moving into her own apt. on her own. I always wondered what yarn you used for these. Question answered! Thanks for going thru the whole process with us!

Lorenzo is lovely, and I bet he smells wonderful! Did you know citrus leaves are great to throw on the coals when grilling? They add a lovely mild citrusy zest flavor to whatever you're cooking. Not sure I'd recommend it on a gas grill if that's what you have...

I haven’t tried that thread while weaving. I’ve used 8/2 cotton for dish towels which is much finer and takes longer to finish. Think I’ll try that next time.

I really enjoyed your video, thank you. I am new at weaving and made my first wash cloth yesterday. When I took the ends off the loom, I tied four strings together in a knot all the way across. I was planning on leaving small tassels on it, but the washing machine did not like that idea lol. The ends matted up pretty bad. So, I trimmed them up some. What is your opinion on knotting the ends instead of sewing them, will the knots stay?

If I could warp that fast I'd weave a lot more lol.

I have warped my knitter’s loom with cotton for dishcloths and it is traveling with me to Colorado Springs for a visit with my mother-in-law. I am planning on showing her how to weave so she has a project while I knit.

Great idea! They're perfect for a newer weaver

Do you have the pattern somewhere or can you provide the ends per inch width and the length of each dish cloth. And then the dimensions after they’ve been wet finished. Thanks so much love your videos.

You make it so hard not to buy a loom.

In the KZread you are using a warping bar?? Where do you find them?

Could I skip the hem stitching and leave them connected and go right to zig zagging on sewing machine and then cut apart? Thanks Trish❣️

Hello! I'm a new subscriber here and I just got done taking a 3 day weaving course so I've been bitten by the weaving bug! Sooo I have a couple questions as I really want to primarily make dishcloths 😊 one is where'd you get your loom and how did you decide on it? Any good ones for beginners? Oh and the a warping board- do you have any to recommend? Thank you, thank you!

What size dpi reed did you use???

Can you use a cardboard loom for dishcloth’s

How long was your warp?

for dish towels. what size comb did you use on the loom
