Feedback from customer who bought a rigid heddle scarf weaving kit
'The last time I wove was 50 years ago on a child's Spears loom. So starting again I took my time to follow the really clear step by step photo instructions. The warping video was extremely useful. At times I was tempted to contact you for advice, but always found my question answered. The loom is a great beginners tool that I can grow my skills with. I am starting my second project. I can't wait to understand how these intense colours work together. Mission: balanced weave / neat selvedge.'
