  • NancyToday, thank you for your comment. The fabric in the video may loop 2 or 3 rows and the ends tucked tight. But in all cases the fabric will be hammered with the beater bar. Thanks again for your interest in my rugs!

  • Great video, I've been thinking about getting a rug loom, but then wonder if I'd rather have a 4 harness one. Now this video makes me want a rug loom again! LOL

    I know you used rug warp for the warp but what were you using for the weft? Was it something you made out of rags or something you purchased for rug weaving?

    Great video!

  • The material she uses in the video is called Upholstery trimming and can be purchased from Great Northern Weaving. She has a link on her website. Thank You so much for your comment!

  • Music sucks and is distracting instead of watching the subject matter your left trying to decipher what the cleft pallet singer is trying to say. no need for it.Nice video other than that .

  • This is wonderful. Such creative use of material and color! Skill too!

  • Some audio explaining the process as it's done, rather than the music would have been much more useful!

  • I like the way that looks  So your pieces don't loop and go back for another row; they are just one pass wide! Interesting..

  • Beautiful rug. What a talent you have. Is nice too to see some manly hands helping out. Men have big, strong hands for a reason! :) Great video thanks for your time and of those who videoed you.

  • Thanks! I didn't even notice a link to her page! My bad! I normally look for that! Thanks for the info!
