Looming on the Loom

I passed by a store for... looming... the other day. So I, randomly as usual, walked into the store to ask if they had lessons, specifically lessons in English.

They did. So I scheduled a lesson for a couple days later.

What is a loom, you ask? Let me transport you back to 1891 before the Industrial Revolution. (I know you're thinking and why did you do this? I don't really know either.)



The one-on-one lesson was awesome. The lady was an absolute sweetheart. She showed me how to use the pedals and strings to operate the loom. Seriously, it was quite the sight.



I showed up and for the next 2+ hours, I learned how to weave silk into this beautiful masterpiece below...
