Takin' it off...

So Sharon asked when I take a group of rugs off the loom...

This is when --  I wove one more rug after this picture and then cut off.  The roll of finished rugs gets big enough that it is in the way of the beater/reed. 

I usually leave the last rug on the loom, using that rug to wrap onto the take up beam.  That way I don't have to lash on all over again-- saves time and warp. 

PS.... Heads up Susan! I'm going to tie fringe on a couple of examples for you to look at...Maybe pictures later today.
