I feel lame for posting here when I’m not actually doing any weaving at the moment, but it’s not like anyone but me reads this anyway 🙂
I ordered some end feed shuttles on ebay and got them yesterday. Man are those things heavy. This just reinforces the idea that I shouldn’t be buying shuttles online. To reinforce it even further, the one pirn I have doesn’t fit them.
I went to YouTube and did a search for weaving videos. Not much there but I did find one at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DwNrzmAOR0. Maybe I’m missing something, and I’m sure that’s it, but it seems like she throws the shuttle, beats, throws the shuttle back the same way it came, beats, then changes the shafts. I realized she has 2 shuttles there but I didn’t see her switch them at those particular places.
Not that there was much going on here before, but there probably won’t be anything going on here for the next 6 weeks or so. The house will officially be under contract tomorrow and I’m going to be busy with all the moving things that come along with it.
