I made a blanket!

It used some nice chunky yarn I got from Melody in grey and I used up some red and dodgy handspun I had made.

Edited to add that it is 26 inches by 70 inches!!

That is just brillant, really really good, a weaving loom is on the same list as my new spinning wheel Rolling Eyes

Thank you, I love weaving but warping the loom takes up the lounge so I have to do it when I have the time and the space... ie: no washing drying everywhere!

I bought a throw from Woolworths for £6 at the weekend but the thrill of making my own is so much better!!!

It looks wonderful!
I'd like to try my hand at weaving, but I think I'd have to have one of those little sample looms because of lack of space (and time).

it looks fab - I must remember to warp up my loom - you're right, it does take a bit of time and space Wink
