And warp weighting? > As in a warp weighted loom? Sounds intriguing! It works really well if you have the space. Each cord has a separate weight and simply hangs over the end of the loom, so when the twist buildup becomes too much you can just unwind it and carry on weaving. Even more cunning versions have swivels between the cord and the weight. The loom is really easy to make; you can see a basic example and some instructions here: http://www.guntram.co.za/tabletweaving/docs/loom/loom.htm Cheers, Eckhard.
