There’s no doubt that rigid-heddle looms offer lots of opportunities for beginning weavers, and so does this issue.
Liz Gipson is a woman who loves rigid-heddle weaving and (fortunately for all of us) has a knack for teaching.
Marilyn Murphy's Vientiane Scarf uses clasped weft to create pattern on a rigid heddle loom.
Susan E. Horton's Stripes and Blocks Kitchen Towels are a great way to learn inlay on the rigid-heddle loom.
Every time I break out the rigid-heddle loom I’m re-reminded of exactly how versatile it is, and not just because it’s so portable. It’s so easy to use it to create lace and texture in your weaving—more so than on a floor loom.
