Description
A $5.00 ticket gives you a chance to win this Ultimate Swatching Bundle from Yarnworker which includes three Swatch Maker mini looms (in setts of 8, 10 and 12), along with a mini shuttle, weaving comb, pick-up stick, and a fair trade bag made by the Ixil Cooperative in Guatemala. (See all tools and the fair trade bag in the third photo.) You also get a one year subscription to YarnworkerU, which includes a course on swatching, and a copy of A Weaver’s Guide to Swatching and A Weaver’s Guide to Yarn. Swatching is a great way to experiment with your ideas before scaling them up. To learn more about these tools and swatching, visit www.yarnworkershop.com/products/ultimate-swatching-bundle.
This Swatching Bundle was donated by WARP Board Member, Liz Gipson, who hosts YarnworkerU, an online community for rigid heddle weavers. After years of making her own tools—sanding popsicle sticks, building looms in different setts (warp spacings) from various materials, and cutting out cardboard shuttles or purchasing frame looms in varying setts and adapting them as best she could—Liz wanted a loom made just for swatching that would last under the rigors of use.
