For years I have been fascinated by weaving. I had signed up for a weaving course before Aaron was born, the class ended up being full so I took the spinning class but it never caught my fancy.
A few months ago, I decided I wanted to so something craft but I no longer enjoy counted cross stitch and I can't knit or crochet so I thought I would consider weaving again. I ended up finding a place at the other end of the city called Shuttleworks and off I went. I bought an Ashford 24" Loom and took it home.
It actually took several weeks to put it together (even though it came with simple instructions) because if there was a way to make a mistake I found it.
I found out that Olds College had a week long course in Beginners Weaving and I signed up for it. I had an absolute blast - great class and the other students were fun too. Our instructor was only 24 years old and a charming young woman. There were 12 of us (I think) - mostly about my age. I think I was the only "city slicker".
I will post some photos next time.
