The Violet Unicorn is a unique little shop along the shoreline of Nova Scotia. There are weaving, sculpting and painting classes all year long and a wide array of locally made gifts available in the shop. I am also a dealer for Schacht Spindle looms and products. If you are interested in ordering a loom or getting more information, please email me. My class schedule is posted on my Facebook page and on my website. If you are in Nova Scotia, come and visit me and weave with me. If you are enjoying my videos and finding them useful, please subscribe so you will see when I post new ones. I love hearing from you and if you have suggestions for things you would like to see, please message me. Thanks for watching!

I really enjoyed your tutorial. I'm not clear on the first part of getting the yarn around the apron bar. Are you looping the yarn every other pass? One over the bar, the next time under the bar? Thank you!
I warp mine the same except the bowl with the yarn I place on a chair by the back of the loom, so the bowl, the loom, and the warping peg are pretty much all in line with each other.
Thank you! I’ve really enjoyed your videos. I have a loom that’s been sitting in its unopened box for a year or so, and each time I watch you warp your loom, I feel a little more emboldened to give weaving a try.
I just purchased this loom yesterday and cried happy happy tears for my beginners journey to weaving ❤ Watching you today makes me feel even more excited for when it arrives in a week 🎉
I have a 25" rigid heddle loom but it's hard to manage (I don't have a place to just set it up) and all I really want to do is make scarves. I was thinking about the Cricket but wanted to see it being used. Your demonstration gave me enough information to make my decision. I just placed the order. :)
I could not have learned to get started on the Cricket Loom without this video! I am able to borrow the loom from my Library for a two week period. That means I have to return the loom, and start over again for another two week period. When my memory needs refreshing I turn to your videos. For now I am just doing small projects to see if I want to make the investment in my own loom someday.
thank you so much ! I borrowed a loom from my school and was quite intimidated, never warped a loom before . Didn't know how to use this cricket loom but with your help i manage to warp the loom and start weaving!!! wow !! I can't believe i did it. and all thanks to you!!! :D much blessings!!
I’ve watched several warping vids. You had some techniques that others didn’t! Thank you so much. I’ve had my 10” cricket for years and kind of ignored it. New hobby starting now.
My RH arrived today, never had a go at weaving before! Just watched your video and feel ready to go! Thanks so much. Clear, concise and also very relaxing!
I do enjoy your videos. Seriously enjoy. I feel like I’m learning with a friend. Did you do a warping board video and hat video? I can’t find them. Do you do online tutorials too? Thanks again.
I'm new to this......did my first warp last night. Have NO idea what I did wrong but my warp literally fell off the back apron bar. LOL I will watch this video 100 more times before the next warp.
