Hi, all, I don't remember if I've asked this question on here or not, but I
really really want to learn to weave items like bookmarks, belts,
potholders, dishcloths, placemats, and maybe wall hangings. I have heard of
a few looms but know nothing about them. What is a good starter loom that
is a little more sophisticated than a potholder kkids' loom? I have almost
no help with instruction reading and getting started. I want to hopefully
work with one strand of cotton or acrylic worsted weight yarn like sugar and
cream or red heart. I don't want to use super thin or super bulky yarn.
Any guidance and/or suggestions as to how I can accomplish this lifetime
goal and ambition that I have wanted to do since age seven to 10 would be
most greatly appreciated. I will have to order online or by mail or phone
as there are no stores around that carry things like this. I have been to
hobby lobby and we are going to get a JoAnn''s Fabric and craft store here
eventually but it has not opened yet. Thanks for any help or guidance and
advice. I already know how to crochet, needle knit, loom knit, weave with a
potholder loom, latchhook, and a small amount of plastic canvas stitching.
Thanks and have a blessed day.
