Jim Upton did a nice article on the basics of weaving in the Volume 5 #4 issue of RodMaker. He followed that up a few issues later with an article on color change weaving. Less expensive than a book or video and pretty well done.

Tom - I just subscribed last week not sure how often RodMaker is published. Is it monthly, quarterly ?

Looking forward to my first issue...

Doc Ski has a weaving video that you might find helpful. Many of the sponsers carry this video. I still have problems with written instructions but videos help me. I wish my friend Jim Upton would produce a video using his loom.
Cheers, Ellis

Ellis; There is a DVD that I made available from Renzetti that explains the use and set up of the Wonder Weaver. In that context it also shows the weaving process. It's not intended to be instructional so far as weaving is concerned but does show how it's done.

another vote for the video by Doc Ski, best I've seen for learning to weave, really helps to learn to actually see someone doing it.
