What's really fun to do also with the dowel rod peg loom is to e wrap, purl stitch and true knit. The rug turns out looking amazing with different stitch patterns incorporated.
I know this is an old video, but I'd like to congratulate you on your first weaving, and I have to agree with you corridale fleece is a dream to work with. I don't bother washing my fleeces either whether for spinning or weaving rugs, the yarn I spin gets washed after I skein it, and if it's for rugs, I weave the rug first and it quite fun washing the rugs once they're woven, I do it outside in the sunshine and I slide my bare feet over the rug once it's all soaped up with a bucket of warm water and then the final rinse I hang it over the clothes line or fence and hose the soap out, they come up beautiful. Cheers from Australia!
@@Wilddaisyhomestead thank you for a reply, I'm glad you found my comment useful, I look forward to seeing more of your experiments, once again thank you for sharing your video. Cheers!
my peg loom arrived last night and I am excited to use it. I have churro sheep and also angora goats for fleece. I am not sure about the angora because I have heard it is difficult to work with. Their fleece is 7 or 8 inches long so I am hoping it will work well with peg weaving the roving.
Yes to the drum carder. It looks like you'll be burning through your prepped roving with this technique. I wonder how these rugs will hold up to wear as there is no twist in the weft. Your rug looks gorgeous though.
Thank you so much. It’s just an experiment rug so far. I have so much to learn. Thank you for your support and watching my videos. Thank you for becoming part of my dreams…. 💕❤️💙
Awesome I’m just learning too I Also made my peg loom but only one size to start with think I might make one for finer yarn also Good luck with your journey ❤😊
Ficou muito lindo seu trabalho!! E esses ajudantes 🐈⬛🐈❤❤❤ Excelente!🇧🇷🇧🇷 Bem legal de fazer! Só que aqui no 🇧🇷só com tiras de malha . Mas fica bom. Gratidão por ensinar nos!
I have not completed a full rug yet summer time and gardening and farm work hit full force and kind of monopolized my time. Now that the busy harvest time is over for a few months, hopefully o can spend some time this winter in doors working in some of these wool projects. Thank you so much for watching.
@@Wilddaisyhomestead yeah it is gardening time here in NZ now so more time doing what needs done outside. so I understand maybe we will see a following video later when you get time 😊
Hi, Thanks for posting your video. It's nice to see how you tackled things. I would just say that I don't personally think you need to invest in a drum carder for using a peg loom. Other's may disagree... but my experience is that if you keep the natural lock structure of the wool, and just hand twist it with the locks in it, or dangling out (which is what I prefer) then it's going to be more hard-wearing, and possibly more attractive as you see more of the natural wool. This way you can retain the sun-bleached tips of the wool when you get those, and there's more dimension to the rug. When the wool is carded, and roving is used, if there is no twist on it, it will form a weaker surface on which to walk, and could be snagged. But, it's lovely too! Thanks for posting!
Thank you so much for your thoughts. I am so new to this that every tip and comment from those more experienced is much appreciated. I’m so grateful you took the time to watch.
Very nice. The lanolin makes your hands soft. Great job.
It does indeed…. Thank you for watching

Oh I would love to see something like that! Even more I’d love to learn something like that. I’ll have to research it
@vernon… would you have any links as to tutorials on this please?
Please add a link to your comment if you have one showing how to do what you’re describing here. We’d all love to see that.
I'm on this same journey. We've been raising Jacob sheep for 7 years; slowly improving the wool. Now I'm learning to spin & weave on a peg loom.
That’s awesome ! Good for you.
Raising sheep has become such an incredible journey for me. I have fallen head over heals in love

I love all this info! Thank you for sharing your process. I’m going to follow it on my next rug
