## Description

Briarloom is an educational resource dedicated to hand-weaving, offering a practical primer for people exploring how woven cloth is made and how loom drafts work. Its content explains the roles of warp and weft, the formation of a shed, yarn selection, sett, tension, and the effects of take-up and shrinkage. The site introduces frame and tapestry looms, rigid-heddle looms, and shaft looms, including table and floor models, and outlines the structures different shaft counts can produce.

Briarloom also guides readers through the four parts of a weaving draft: threading, tie-up, treadling, and drawdown. Clear explanations connect draft choices to plain weave, twill, and satin, including how threading and treadling patterns affect the finished cloth. An interactive draft previewer lets users change structures and threading draws, swap warp and weft colours, and see the draft and fabric update together. A glossary clarifies weaving terminology, while notes address accuracy and accessibility. Briarloom combines foundational instruction with a visual tool for learning and experimenting with hand-weaving structures.
