  October 2007

The 2008 Vävkalender 
<http://www.vavstuga.com/store/books.shtml#vavkalen08> is in! Reserve 
yours while the supply lasts.

Our doors will be open for the Fiber Twist <http://www.fibertwist.com/> 
weekend October 27-28. 

There has been one change in the 2008 class schedule. Our Vävstuga 
Basics class will be held September 15-19, which is one week later than 
the original schedule specified. This will allow us to attend the 
Svenska Vävrådet <http://www.svenskavav.com/vavmassan.htm> weaving 
conference in Sweden.

Two new looms are going into production this Fall at the Glimåkra 
factory. We will show you pictures as soon as they are available. Let us 
know of your interest so we order enough of them.

    * A smaller economy style floor loom (depth of Ideal but narrower
      widths and very attractive price)
    * Victoria folding table loom that comes with 4, 8 or 16 shafts

Our mini-movie <http://www.vavstuga.com/publish/movies.shtml#reattach> 
of the month is about quickly reattaching a warp after cutting, which is 
something we do on a regular basis here at Vävstuga. This saves time and 
yarn if you need to cut off your project before you finish your warp.

We do still have some slots in our Swedish Heirlooms 
<http://www.vavstuga.com/classes/descriptions.shtml#heirlooms> class 
November 26-30.

Becky and Susanna will be taking a trip to Sweden towards the end of 
October to spend some time at the Glimåkra loom factory. Stay tuned!
