Weaving on a Rigged Heddel Loom

Weaving with a rigged heddel loom.  When I was farming in Sheepranch, California in the winter of 2010-11 I had one of these.  I only worked on it a bit and did a workshop with it for the Cuatro Caminos Collective after I left Sheepranch and comrade Iris bought it from me. 

Comrade Ned found one in the Free Box at the Taala Hooghan Infoshop in Flagstaff, Arizona and I got it set up today in the Sheepherders' Lending Library.  Wow, sheep keep coming up...
