In case you couldn’t tell, I had lots of fun playing with the baby takadai and the thermoplastic fiber. I ended up using a metal ruler that has a rounded end for my sword, it worked really well. I also picked up some washers from the local small hardware store that fit in the bobbins with the other one, I think the extra weight made the next braid I did tighter or could just be my imagaination.
Thank you Giovanna for this class, I look forward to more!
