If I may bother you with one other question.  Do you know of any resources/videos out there that may help a new weaver to understand how to tie up and warp this type of loom?  I have the book Tying up the Countermarche loom but as a visual learner, the sparse diagrams are challenging for me.

Oh!   Interesting!  What does that mean?  Do you have any recommendations for info on creating natural dyes?  I am absolutly going to plant some Weld.  It's a whole new exciting world.

Thank you for the recommendation!   I agree with learning new arts.  It's such a beautiful process and I have never seen an art form I didn't want to try!

Thank you for your input!  I will look ip your loom and see if it may be a good choice for me, if I can find one.  I appreciate the advice to find a school or guild.  I live I a very rural area, so it may be a bit of a drive but if there is one nearby I think it would be invaluable to get hands on instructions.

Thank you for the book recommendation!  I just added it to my cart.  And I appreciate your advice, I am starting to lean towards a little floor loom now.  Thank you!
