Hello
I am new to the group; I did some weaving a couple of years ago but still consider myself a beginner. I just acquired an 8H 40" Macomber (with gorgeous PURPLE harnesses--happy!) after a couple of years without a loom (that was a sad time!). Anyhow, there are two new aprons on the loom, but only 3 rods, so I am considering using string for the front apron. Is there a particular place here that might show me how to do that? I've never used just string up front. I imagine I'd have to remove the apron that is there? Also, drapery cord was recommended to me for the strings. What do you all use?
Thanks! And here are some pictures of my new-to-me loom.
