Today, we’re talking about places you are most likely losing inches at the loom. This concept is really important as you plan a project so you are compensating at important spots to end up with the project you want. But it’s also key when you are actually weaving. Yep, we’re talking about draw-in, and take-up! Let’s go.

Maybe they can become yours, too? This link will take you right to them.
