Spinning and fiber work are material sports, there is no point in denying it.<\/p>\n

A couple of days ago, I came across an Interweave post on pin loom weaving for hand spinners<\/a>. At the same time I had a stash cleaning since my handspun storage was bursting. And I realized that the pin loom would solve my problem.<\/p>\n

How to weave on a pin loom<\/h2>\n

A pin loom is a small 10×10 cm loom that only needs a short piece of yarn for one square. The first three passes are just threaded between the pins \u2013 vertical, horizontal and vertical again \u2013 and on the fourth you weave horizontally with a long needle. You weave in the ends and the square is finished in under 20 minutes. Since all the squares are made in the same way it is easy to sew them together in the selvedges.<\/p>\n

Weaving with my handspans<\/h2>\n

I bought a Zoom loom from Schacht<\/a>. The technique is really addictive. I like how different yarns behave in different ways on the loom (and off).\u00a0I spin a lot of yarn, and there is often a small ball of yarn left when I have finished a project. And I can’t throw away these odd balls, no matter how small they are. I have a hard time throwing away even short lengths that I cut off from weaving in ends. I even save the last piece that is left of the warp after cutting it (effsingar is the Swedish word, is there a name for it in English?). There is so much time and love put into these short peaces of yarn and I can’t just ignore that.<\/p>\n

An odyssey of my spinning history<\/h2>\n

When I weave these scraps of yarn it is like an odyssey of all my previous handspun yarns \u2013 I get to see and feel them all over again and they bring back memories of projects past. I can also see the development in my own spinning from the uneven, loosely spun yarns in the beginning six years ago to the more consistent ones I make today.<\/p>\n

Planned project<\/h2>\n

My plan is to do what the author Deborah Held suggests in the Interweave post<\/a>: I will make squares of all my small balls of leftover handspun yarns, sew them together, felt and make a blanket of perhaps 15 x 20 squares. I have got a lot of handspun leftovers in my stash so I think it is a realistic idea. And so far it looks like the colours will go well together.<\/p>\n
