Hi, I am new to Backstrap weaving. I stumbled upon this site when researching card weaving. I do many fiber arts. Knitting, Crochet, Bobbin Lace, Romanian Point Lace, Traditional Rug Hooking and now have dove head first into card weaving and backstrap weaving. I avoided weaving because I just didn't need another craft, but because I like the challenge of learning a new art I just couldn't resist any longer. I have done my first narrow learning piece and it was pretty bad. I warped up my backstrap this weekend and had many problems getting the warp right. Wrong number of rounds and I kept messing up the order of my warp strings. Grr. But to make a long story short, this evening I was able to get to start weaving. It is really looking pretty good. I will post picture when it is done.
I look forward to making new friends here. It looks like everyone here is real friendly and lots of help to each other.
