Belt on a Band Loom
Cleaning up the old projects, to make room for the new. I started this band last summer to practice tension on the medieval box loom (beating it evenly with a wool warp is a bit trickier than the cotton I used the first time around). By the end I think I figured it out, so hopefully the next project turns out a little more...consistent in its width. It'll do for a belt with my serving attire, at least, or maybe just a strap for hauling small bundles.
