From projects woven out of beautiful blends to cloth that combines yarn types for spectacular effects, this issue is all about how weavers mix and match fibers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurther your fiber education with the Fiber 101 article, and then take a deep dive into the world of Angora rabbits. Frequent Little Looms designer and Angora rabbit breeder Greta Holmstrom shares what makes these rabbits so special—and why their fiber is usually blended. One of the best ways to understand yarn is to make it yourself, so we’ve got an article by Debbie Held on how her experience as a handspinner has made her a better weaver—even when using store bought yarn. Also, in this issue, learn how easy it can be to design and weave yardage for your own no-sew vest from Judith Shangold and get the details on how to use pick and pick and wavy lines in tapestries in the last installment of Tapestry Weaving.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe projects offer hands-on lessons for using blends and combining fibers. In this issue, you’ll find some twilight inspired towels woven in cottolin, a set of elegant baskets woven out of a paper-linen blend, a runner that mixes cottons with a thick wool for a hint of differential shrinkage, and two inkle-woven bracelets that show how adding a bit of rayon to cottolin can really up the shine.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWeavers of all skill levels are sure to love these fiber duos (and trios!). Sometimes blends are just better.\u003cbr\u003e-- \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eString Theory: Fiber 101—The Basics by Amy Tyler\u003cbr\u003eHow Learning to Spin can Make you a Better Weaver by Debbie Held \u003cbr\u003eBehind the Yarn: Angora Rabbits by Greta Holmstrom\u003cbr\u003eThe Rebel Loom: A Rigid Heddle History by Michele Marshall \u003cbr\u003eExcerpt: Rustic Linen Placemats by Anita Osterhaug \u003cbr\u003eTapestry Weaving: Pick and Pick and Wavy Lines by Elena Kawachi and Claudia Chase \u003cbr\u003eWeaving to Wear: Using Your Stash by Judith Shangold\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eProjects:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarvest Festival Runner by Jennifer Kwong (rigid heddle)\u003cbr\u003eThe Queenslander Scarf by Annabelle Johnstone (rigid heddle)\u003cbr\u003eOrchard Harvest Mittens by Dana Rebmann (pin loom)\u003cbr\u003eOrchard Harvest Cowl by Dana Rebmann (pin loom)\u003cbr\u003eRed Brick Road Towels by Regina McInnes (rigid heddle)\u003cbr\u003ePin-Loom Pumpkin Patch by Deb Bagley (pin loom)\u003cbr\u003eDesert Twilight Towels by Malynda Allen (rigid heddle)\u003cbr\u003eShifting Light Placemats by Brittany Wells (rigid heddle)\u003cbr\u003eLotus Flower Baskets by Gabi van Tassell (pin loom)\u003cbr\u003eTake-Along Journal Covers by Meg Stump (pin loom)\u003cbr\u003eAutumn Bouquet Scarf by Charles Davis (rigid heddle)\u003cbr\u003eJaunty Angora Tam by Greta Holmstrom (pin loom)\u003cbr\u003eSnuggly Skip-Dent Scarf by Sedona Rigsby (rigid heddle)\u003cbr\u003ePretty in Plum Purse by Jennifer Chapman (pin loom)\u003cbr\u003eOcean Sunrise Scarf by Gala McCurdy (rigid heddle)\u003cbr\u003eA Touch of Turquoise by Alison Irwin (inkle)\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Designer: Little Looms Editors\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Long Thread Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664570745046,"sku":"xqo1792647621392","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0822\/5177\/6214\/files\/easy-weaving-with-little-looms-fall-2024_1.webp?v=1792647628","url":"https:\/\/glassbeadshimmerfit.shop\/products\/easy-weaving-with-little-looms-fall-2024","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
