Beam is a foundational yarn—perfect for beginners learning to weave on a rigid heddle loom, but experienced weavers will also find it delightful for twills and color work on a multi-shaft loom. Beam’s bright, cheerful colors make it a natural choice for baby blankets, kitchen towels, placemats, napkins and runners. Soft but strong, this yarn was designed for making functional cloth you reach for every day.
Beam 3/2 Organic Cotton Weaving Yarn ~ Natural
I bought several colors of this yarn for use on my rigid heddle loom and they are all beautiful. They weave up very nicely as kitchen towels...soft and strong. They also wash and dry well.
Love working with this yarn! It’s super easy to work with in both warp and weft (both on the rigid heddle or floor loom) - and the colors are even better in person!
Bought it for a future weaving project but have used the entire cone on knitting scarves for Christmas! Particularly love the little Sophie Scarves, but have also made 2 men’s scarves as well.
I don’t think that I would use this yarn the first time out on a loom. The end product is great - but my inexperience made the project more challenging than I had predicted. Warping on a 12 dent reed with a yarn that isn’t as forgiving as wool was an eye opener. That said - the best lessons come from making and correcting mistakes. My second warping with the yarn was much easier -No, if I could only master the apron paper. keeping it flat and straight!!!
