hey
it's about time someone set up an internet forum for all us weavers
nice one syne
so, yeah, my name is Andrew Kieran, or humblebumble, and i blog at weave4fun.blogspot.com
i am interested in weaving for a mass-market and am handweaving until i can buy or salvage a workable automatic loom without borrowing money from evil banks
i am also going to be going to college soon at galashiels textile design school. hooray!
i make a lot of 2/2 twill scarves and plain weave rugs.
i feel very self-concious here, but never mind.
oh, hooray for weavecast! i listen to it when i'm warping or doing something else quiet. it makes me happy :)
hooray!

hello, Andrew
I have just discovered this site and I enjoyed reading your introduction, so here's mine. My name is Fern Devlin and I blog at http://buyathread.wordpress.com. I learned to weave decades ago in the New York City textile industry and worked with someone who graduated from art college at Galashiels. Read about it here http://buyathread.wordpress.com/2009/03/08/2009-weave-of-the-week-10-sample-weaving/and please don't miss Edy's comment at the end.
Why hello back!
Thanks for the friendly comments! Your textile college plans sound exciting.
