My name is Tara and I'm a university student (Classical Studies) applying for a grant so that I can build my own full-sized, warp-weighted loom. What I'm wondering (if you don't mind my asking) is how much this loom cost to make, tarasaurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17707852669847648850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484943862428649744.post-23035152840199439532014-03-04T19:57:22.873-08:002014-03-04T19:57:22.873-08:00What weight of fibre are you using for the weaving...What weight of fibre are you using for the weaving?<br /><br />Thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06478757965568081363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1484943862428649744.post-10033644136135462002013-11-04T13:44:32.500-08:002013-11-04T13:44:32.500-08:00I am so looking forward to your finished garment a...I am so looking forward to your finished garment and finished paper!
