  This video is like gold! You’re so brave to use your hand spun for sampling but really why save it? What a great idea to use it in a hat. That’s so clever

  LoL my first weaving came out GREAT, I wove with a 85% Alpaca/15% merino warp; with clasped wefts. One weft was alpaca/silk boucle heavy lace and other weft was pure silk heavy lace. All wefts were very colorful, shawl came out gorgeous, even, drapey, light but warm, SOFT. But I’m also VERY familiar with protein fibers. HOWEVER- when it came to working with cellulose fibers my projects turned into samples (will write them off as tea towels lol) very wonky tea towels lol though it did teach me how cotton needs to be woven to produce good fabric. Also had to get a warp board lol I have an issue of lashing on uneven warp but the warp board’s solved that since it can be secured right onto my 32” rigid heddle loom.

  Some of it is in the video and also the thumbnail photo. Basically I bought about 20 skeins of wool 😅 (I gave some to my niece who is an avid crocheter 😁) also I bought a kilo of raw wool (merino and corriedale) to process at home. I have a couple of projects to finish then I’ll get stuck into the new skeins and process the raw wool. So exciting! I wasn’t as greedy this year, and I limited myself to what I could fit in my backpack haha

  I just got back from a week in Melbourne and the Bendigo sheep and wool show as well. I live in NSW and flew via Sydney. I was a little disappointed in the show and its set up. Most likely because the venue is old and many of the vendors were separated in different small sheds. Only one, larger shed where the fashion parade was held, shown in this video, it was darker, not a lot of light inside and a little crowded. It was very cold because it wasn't closed off from the outside air. I was dressed for winter though, so coped well. I did enjoy seeing new vendors I hadn't seen before and did manage to get some yarn I can't get where I live. Seeing it in the flesh was great. People very friendly. I love seeing the marino sheep, never had seen one before, but was saddened by how they were housed in individual small enclosures, so small they couldn't move. I felt is was cruel having them standing there all day in such a small space. Only a few had space, as in the photo of the 2 ewes and their lambs. The highlight for me was visiting Bendigo Woollen Mills the following day, I buy from them all the time. Glad I went, but compared to Sydney events held in the Exhibition Centre, this one just missed something.

  @RigidHeddleWeavinginBrisbane11 күн бұрын

  Thanks for this. I haven’t been to the Sydney one, so I’m now going to have to plan this for next winter! I agree about the sheep, I’m hoping it’s just for the day and they get to roam in a pasture at night at least. Also, I agree about seeing and feeling the yarns at the show that you normally only see online. It makes a difference to what you purchase as not only you know how it feels but can chat to the people that make the yarn. The yarn I purchase is mostly traceable and from non-mulsed sheep which is important to me. I loved reading your perspective, thank you so much for reaching out! (And now I have to get to a Sydney one!!)

Next year if I’m organised enough I’ll book accommodation in Bendigo itself and do 2 days. I also wanted to get to Bendigo woollen mills but ran out of time! Next year hopefully ❤️

  Oh my goodness I am so inspired by this series. I'm super new to returning to weaving, could you tell me why you say 12.5 dent reed and you could substitute for a 12 dent reed? I think I have a 10 dent reed, would that not work for any of these patterns?

• 
  @RigidHeddleWeavinginBrisbaneАй бұрын

  Hello! Thank you. A 10 dent reed could work, your towels just wouldn’t be as closely woven. 12.5 or 12 dent is my preferred reed for 8/4 cotton as I feel that the towels are more hardy and last longer (years and years) but that’s just my personal preference But you can definitely use a 10 dent. Think of it as 12 threads per inch of fabric vs 10 threads per inch of fabric. The reed determines how many threads per inch. Try the 10 dent, and see if you like the towels at that density. Thank you for watching my videos!

• 
  @celestedouville2529Ай бұрын

  @@RigidHeddleWeavinginBrisbane That makes sense. Maybe I can use thicker yarn until I can pick up a finer reed.
