Step 1: Indulge your impulse and take a rigid heddle weaving class at your local yarn shop
Step 2: Take the loom home to finish your project (so fast!) and start another one, and accidentally warp the loom backwards. Console yourself that others far smarter than you have done this!
Step 3: Take a Craftsy class and watch it over and over again. A hands-on class is ideal, but this is a close second.
Step 4: Finally decide which size loom to purchase — it helps to acknowledge that this will just be your FIRST loom.
Step 5: Wait for your 15″ Cricket to arrive and read a lot of books, deal with life, and . . . “Oh look! A drop spindle!”
