Last Sunday’s LIVE cast was another fun one. You guys bring the best questions. Sunday, I shared with you guys a little about how I freeform art weave on my 4-shaft floor looms, as well as talked about some of the yarn I have been spinning especially with art weaving in mind.

About UrbanGypZ

About UrbanGypZ Fiber artist Stacey Budge — you might know her as UrbanGypZ — works out of a home studio just outside Raleigh, NC, where the loom is usually warped with something interesting and there's fiber drying somewhere it shouldn't be.
