INKLE LOOM FOR MAKING BELTS, ETC.

Pam from Richmond

INKLE LOOM FROM FRED’S SHED

Inkle weaving is a type of warp-faced weaving where the shed is created by manually raising or lowering the warp yarns. You can make inkle belts, or use for Tablet Weaving. There are plenty of instructions on the internet as well as YouTube videos.

The loom is designed to create long, very strong braids. Weave intricate patterns and embellish with different types of yarns, beads and colours. Make trims, tassels, bands, straps, chokers, dog leads and more. The loom is made from NZ Rimu wood and strongly constructed. The warp tension can be adjusted with the adjustable tension peg. Compact size for portability and easy storage.

Here is a book, in colour, you can download from Ashford looms. This loom is a bit different, but you can get the idea. Current price of an Ashford Inkle loom is $119.00

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
