Loom Waste

My ZERO project includes re-purposing loom waste – the warp ends at the beginning and end of the weaving that cannot be woven. In this document I share some of the ways I re-use these yarn ends and any other small fabric scraps as a result of sampling. I’d love to hear from other weavers about how else you use your loom waste.
