    I reviewed all of these again over this weekend. Great resource! I’m not sure if it’s a playlist on youtube, but it could be a super one.

    It was fun to see some of the older videos that you made, Kelly! A great teacher from “back then”. You show more confidence in your current videos, but have not lost your ability to identify the challenges that new weavers might experience.

    My favourite weaving resource! Thank you for sharing your gift.
