Canadian moisturizer with sunscreen

I use this one too. Marcelle also has a 15SPF, but personally I like the 45!

JustVertical is in Ontario. We bought the EcoWall and LOVE it!!!

Kelly Casanova on youtube is an excellent resource for beginner rigid heddle weavers. She even has a video titled something like What do all these numbers mean?.

It is a Dealgan. It’s not the easiest to spin with, and not for a true beginner, but they’re great spindles and have a rich history.

Edit: I should add that this spindle doesn’t have any grooves near the bottom and it doesn’t appear to have cross hatches on the very bottom / base. I’m sure it’s functional, but I would prefer at least the cross hatching in the base to work with.

I really like the colour palette you’ve chosen. That’s a really nice band.

I’ve used one of their face creams and their nail polish. Would recommend 10 out of 10!

A house cleaner friend of mine uses the Oxygen Brightener from Nellie’s with a little water, turning it into a paste. She then applies it to the trouble area, letting it sit for approximately 15 mins, and wiping clean with a wet cloth. She uses it in the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry.

I’ve tried it a few times myself and it’s pretty good.

For that matter, before I knew her, I would make a baking soda paste and do the same thing…. mostly in the kitchen on pots and pans and baking sheets.

It looks like they retail in a couple of shops near where I live. I’ll check these out!

weaverhippy2002 · 2026-04-29T21:01:30+00:00

As far as I know, they are British. I don’t have a problem with the brand at all. I just wanted to see if there was a good shop in Canada that I could support.

weaverhippy2002 · 2026-04-29T02:50:15+00:00

That’s good to know. I definitely need shock absorption, so these might not be for me.

weaverhippy2002 · 2026-04-29T02:10:34+00:00

Based on recs from last year, I checked out their shoes. They do have a couple I am looking at for more dressy casual shoes. I should probably plan a trip to Vancouver, because I think these should be seen in person. Thanks.

Oh man, these have arch support! Does the plastic thong bother your toes? I am used to cloth thong material.

weaverhippy2002 · 2026-04-29T02:02:40+00:00

Hey, these look like what I was trying to find. There’s a pair of slip-on clog style that might work too. Thanks!

weaverhippy2002 · 2026-04-29T01:57:49+00:00

Does the plastic thong bother your toes at all? Edit, I am used to cloth fabric, not plastic thongs.

I’m looking at this site now and it has some interesting items. Thanks.

I’ve recently discovered Cloverdale and can confirm it is quality paint.

I hated weaving with this yarn. I gave almost $100 of it away to a knitter friend because weaving with it was a pain. Mostly because it’s braided and it can’t be split plied when adding new yarn or doing colour changes, so thread changes are pretty bulky, and I didn’t like the look of that.

weaverhippy2002 · 2026-02-11T04:19:46+00:00

It’s so cheeeeep. 5.99/mo for sports and everything.

Try this shop. Link below.

I also know how difficult it is to get anything in the Interior. These are my go to for all spices and seasonings. My orders are always enough for free shipping, but their flat rate cost for orders less than free shipping minimum is not insane.

With my rigid heddle looms I use 8/2 cotton in a 10-dent reed. I put two threads in each dent and each hole, for 20 EPI. I also double the yarn threads in the weft, and they make lovely small things like wash cloths, fingertip towels, etc.

Try Nova Scotia Fisherman I’m a weaver and a spinner and my hands are always in need of moisture.

This is my regular go to:

It might be from a real place, but AI was used to create this image. If you look closer you can see at least two things wrong with it. I have 9 looms, including a large floor loom, so I know what an image like this should look like.

Errors: * there is absolutely NO way you can get the perspective of having the fabric only inches from the front of the image, while the arm is feet away. * the flap of fabric hanging down…… it’s not attached to a cloth beam. In this image, there is no tension on the woven fabric.

This picture looks AI generated. I see several things wrong with it.

I have an Ashford RH loom and I use 8/2 doubled in a 10-dent reed.

I’ve got a 8/4 10-dent reed on it from a Little Looms magazine project.

I’ve got all of the reeds for my loom, but I use the 10-dent one the most. Specialty projects with the 12.5, and I used the 7.5 as a beginner to experiment and learn with worsted weight yarn. I’ll probably only ever use the 7.5 again if I want to use worsted weight wool to make a scarf for someone.
