Weaving Wednesday

Thought I would start updating my weaving projects on Wednesdays rather than mixing them in with my knitting posts on Friday.
 
A week ago I received my 24" Kromski Rigid Heddle Loom but did not have a chance to it until this past Sunday to start any project.  First on the new loom is Tea Towels from the online class I took on Craftsy.  I am using Lily's Sugar and Cream yarn with a 8 dent heddle.  I was able to complete the first towel and ready to start the second.
 

Last week I finished this scarf using Knit Picks Stroll in Merry-Go-Round colorway for the weft and Dove Heather for the warp.  The scarf finished at 6.5" x 72" off the loom but I still need to wet finish it so I will measure again.


 
 
This morning I warped my Cricket loom for another scarf using Paton's Kroy Sock Yarn I am repurposing from a pair of socks I started but had not finished even the first sock.
 
 
 
I'm really enjoying weaving, lots of ideas but need to still practice and take my time getting my edges even.
