verified ownerAbsolutely wonderful workshop
verified ownerI found this short instruction video very worthwhile. I had watched various YouTube videos and assumed that would be sufficient but when it came to actually starting to warp up for the first time, some things remained unclear. So I paid for this instruction, and benefited from Cathy’s clear demonstration going through the process step by step, and explaining as she went along. I successfully warped my new loom alone, thanks to her very useful tip about tensioning the yarn while working alone. I am a total beginner at this, and managed each step successfully. I would recommend this.
