I started searching for "history of computer science" and ended up here. It's really amazing how things with no apparent connection are connected. Thanks for the video ma'am.

Interesting! Had a sudden out of the blue desire to learn how a loom works. You explained it nicely. :)

Had a sudden urge to see how a loom work. This is really informative, thank you.

It’s always a pleasure to learn from and watch a master at work.

Thank you for recording this video! I love seeing the details of how everyday goods are made in the absence of computers and electricity. I think it's really important for people to understand how that occurs.

As an automation enthusiast, I feel thrilled by this. I know punch cards actually has its root in industrial looms. But now I feel it even more. Maybe our computers are just modern looms - making the complex tapestry of pictures and sounds 60 or 100 times each second on the monitor.

Hey, Kathy! We loved your demonstration of a loom! We went to the Science Museum in London and saw both a Jacquard loom and an Yamaha automated loom but we didn't really have a full understanding of what was going on. Your video helped us understand precisely what was going on in both! Thanks for the lovely video!

after seeing a picture of a loom and realizing i didnt actually know how they worked, i searched it up and ended here. i wasn't expecting to be amazed at how cool it actually is. when she started sending the boat back and forth, i thought "wow this is sick!" -- thank you for a such an informative video!

This is a great video! I’ve always wanted to know how a loom works and decided to find out tonight. Thank you for posting!

Thank you so very much for your concise and easy to follow explanation! I'm going to be starting with a small loom and see how I take to weaving. Your work is beautiful by the way!

Today I learned that looms are really cool.

What an amazingly clever machine. Thank you for this helpful video, you seem like such a sweet lady! I was just trying to do some research for a story, and now I want to get a loom and start weaving my own towels, haha.

That’s a nice and understandable video. If I am ever in Bixby y I am going to come to your store and buy something because I appreciate the work put into these products a lot more. Thank you for explaining this process.

Thank you so much for your video, Kathy! I hope all's well for you and your family in Oklahoma! You guys have been hit pretty hard over there! Been interested in weaving since reading the story of East. The main character was skilled at weaving and I'd only seen looms twice in life with no idea how they worked! Homever made these looms gotta be a genius! ^^

This was a good demonstration and elaboration on the topic of using a loom. God bless you! God is good.

Thank you for the wonderful demo. Wish I lived nearby to visit your store.

26 years old and I've only just discovered how fabric is made. Our whole civilization is built on it

Great video! Thank you. I work for a small fabrication shop where we make metal mesh fabric. We have big beastly looms to weave the metal strands from 1/32" up to 3/8" thich diameter into many different mesh products. I mostly weld but started training on the looms recently. This definitely helped me understand the mechanics more.

Thank you for this! I read a book in high school called East, a decent portion of which pertains to loomwork. I recently purchased the book for myself and figured I should finally learn how a loom actually works, because I felt relatively confused during those portions. You laid it out very clearly in your video, and I now feel equipped to understand what the author is talking about when she writes about loomwork.

this is such a good and clear explanation. thanks so much

What an informative video, thank you so much Kathy!

I bought a loom on Animal Crossing and then started thinking about how I didn't know how in the world a loom worked. Thanks for the interesting video, very helpful :)

Liked very much your video. Now I got an idea how a loom works. Thank you, Kathy.

Wonderful, thank you for this video. I'm reading a book on the textile industry from about 42,000 years ago, and it's difficult to imagine the intricacies of weaving when there are no visuals.

Thank you for posting this, because I would like to learn but I didn't know how it worked.

Super useful video, thank you ma'am!

Thanks! I finally understand it! Great demonstration, much appreciated.

Thanks Kathy. I am also from Bixby ,Ok. My name is Marsha Wolf. So enjoyed your video. Hope to see you in person one day to admire your skill.

A very informative and well done video. Thank you!!

Such a sophisticated machine. Shows how intelligent men were in the 18th century.

Amazing, thank you so much for making this!!!

Beautiful work .thank you

Thanks great video

Best explanation video on this site

Thank you so much for putting the effort! Learnt a lot!

Amazing. It is music.

This was explained so well!

Very informative and awesome explanation!

Huh... Thought about it a few times, but was never sure how it actually worked. This made it very clear, thank you:)

Had no idea what a loom was before this video, thanks!

Very well done, thanks!

Thanks for an informative video :)

Thanks, I've always wondered how these worked!

Started smoking a blunt had a randomly wondered how a loom and here I am at 3 am.

Get well soon Kathy :)

Thank you so much. Very educational.

Thank you, beautiful crafting. I for one like to understand the technique and skill and time that goes into handmade objects. Very nice that you are making it unlike any commercial manufacturer would make it.

Awesome ...just awesome!!!!

Thankew mam for this video...😍

Hello from Knoxville Tennessee!! I just found your videos on youtube and wanted to say hello. I have a 47 inch rigid Gilmore that was made in 1963 and am getting a 36 inch Gilmore on the 27th. Completely excited! I could tell yours was a Gilmore when I started watching this and was super happy. My 47 inch is a 4 shaft...10 treddle loom. I'm very new to weaving (am practicing on my 32 inch Ashford rigid) and wondered if you'd happen to know why a person would have ordered 10 treddles with only 4 shafts? The owner of Gilmore was able to pin point my exact loom in his records because of the odd layout. It has 2 back beams too. Just curious. Happy to meet you! I'm Nola McNeely.

wow! i always used to wonder how a handloom works, thanks for letting me know! :D

Thanks for the informative video! My sister has Down syndrome and she learned how to weave on looms like this at an art program that she goes to. She hasn't been able to go to the program since March because of Covid, so we're thinking of getting her a little table loom for Christmas so that she can do a little bit of weaving. Of course, that made me curious as to how looms work. Your video explained it really well--looms are such a brilliant piece of human ingenuity. I can't believe how well everything works together! So cool!

thank you for that

Thanks, this was informative!

Hello, do you know what loom this is? It’s beautiful

I really hope she weaves "THICK AND THIRSTY" on that towel.

Reading the book Circe by Madeline Miller brought me here! I was curious how one worked. Thank you!

Very informative! Have you ever wove silk on your look before? If so, is it any different or would you have any advice?

Thanks! This was great!

what a lovely video

Fascinating!

What if they calulated a computer with a multi colored string and it could replicate what you have here but I bet nothing can beat the hand loom when it comes to quality

Looks fun but looks difficult to

Who is student come for study fiber to fabric

Thanks!

Soo... how do you remove the cloth?

i still don’t know how it works

Thousands of years of generational teaching and learning of skills, and so many of them are gone within a couple generations now, lost forever. Makes me sad.

🤯 cannot grasp.

Please speak in hindi

Hy mam this work in India too much.

how did i end up here

This stuff looks so complicated.
