Perfect opportunity to ease into weaving.

I live in a small house with most walls covered in bookcases. However, I have carved out one wall for a couple of rigid heddle looms. This book is a great start, even if you intend to eventually go with a floor loom. You may also find yourself using the rigid heddle as a tester for the sample you plan to make on the other loom. The drafts are not that colorful, but they do not need to be. Another advantage not found in your average weaving book is the history of Ashford. It may be a tad of an Ashford a-d-v-e-r-t-i-s-e-m-e-n-t. However, you will soon feel like one of the family.
