Macomber 48 in  Ad a Harness Loom Here is a deal!  A Macomber 48 in loom. For sale . Look at my Etsy shop for details in the side margin.

Rust color thread with a sand tan thread in a small windowpane check . I don't seem to have a photo on hand . I will have to photograph it while on the loom. I am weaving it 50 inches wide and the finished width will be around 45-46 inches wide. Yep ! you loose that much in the weaving take up an then when I wash it to set the fabric it shrinks some more. I will probably put on 10 yards of cotton thread sett at 18 ends to the inch . Let's see 18 ends times 50 inches is 900 threads to handle . Just a short warp. I am waiting to hear from an interior decorator if I am going to be weaving two mohair throws for a yacht in the Caribbean. I don't want to have a lengthly warp on the loom holding up the flow. I enjoy color and watching the fabric grow with each throw of the shuttle. There is a rhythm that happens . A peaceful rocking back and forth with repeated motion. It is so apart of my daily activity for hours I spend working at the loom.  I have two big warps to weave after...

Hello , It has been awhile since I posted . Thought you might like to take a studio tour .Notice the flag in the window and the new design for a rag rug hanging on the back of the rack. Very popular and has been keeping me busy weaving these colors . You can see how I weave sitting at the loom and using cloth strips that I hand cut and weave into the warp on the loom. As I weave I advance the warp . There is usually 10 yards of yarn on the loom. I have woven as much as 30 yards of one style  fabric this year . It takes me a month to weave 30 yards by 60" wide .
