I have mentioned to my hubby for a few years that I intended to sell my 36 inch weaving loom that has been neglected for years. Lucky me posted an online ad and today it went to a new home.
Sadly when one lets go of things it can sometimes stir up memories.
Long ago I remember purchasing my loom as a kit which I then stained and oiled the wood and then put the 36inch 4 harness loom together and proceeded to learn how to weave.
The first time I set up my loom I made placemats and lucky for me my mom liked to hang onto things,
you'll notice a photo of them.:-)
So this is the end of an era for me RE: weaving...but heck there is only so much one can focus on.:-)

| 36 inch 4 harness loom ready for new home |
 |
| Included the two warping boards in sale. |
 |
| The books, raddle, various shuttles went too! |
 |
| My first set of placemats I gave my mom long ago. |
 |
| A baby blanket, the white shawl and a large linen dining table cloth I made long ago. |
 |
| This table cloth had 1200 ends or threads in the warp when I wove it. |
The reward of selling my loom was the purchase of my new Ipad.
