I seen more than 100 videos but only your video clear my weaving doubt 💖 Thank u🌷 ❤From India🇮🇳

Thank you for showing the Backstrap Loom with a Heddle. My Italian grandparents made large rugs with this method. I didn't know this until we bought their house and found the Heddle in the basement. My dad said they tied the strings to the doorknob and 2 other people manned the heddle!

for the first time, i’ve finally understood how to get different sheds!!! i’ve been wanting to try weaving for a long time, but i never understood how weavers in the videos i would watch would switch sheds so quickly; you’re the first one who’s done that step slow and focused enough for me to understand. thank you so much!!!

Awesome tutorial! I find hand weaving a fascinating art medium, which has been around for thousands of years. I can only imagine the time, patience, and perseverance that our ancestors had when creating beautiful works of art out of hand weaving. I'm definitely going to try and experiment with hand weaving in my own art projects. Thank you for sharing! :)

I love how simplistic and easy, yet entertaining your video is. I’m ordering some blackstrap heddles right now. Thanks 😊

I was happy to learn how you warp and begin weaving, and when you added in all the situations you can weave in, I began smiling like a cheshire cat. Thank you for cheering me up, this miserable evening.

This is great - so clear and easy to follow. I really appreciated the humour and creativity in the number of activities you managed to do while weaving!!

I’ve been staring for months at the rigid heddle my husband got me for Christmas (2020) that I asked for but once I got, was too intimidated to try to use. Finally 7 months later on my birthday today I decided I could do this! Your video is incredibly helpful and encouraging me to make my Norwegian Sami ancestors proud by starting my band weaving journey 😁. Thank you Clare! I didn’t realize till the end that my tools came from you too so it was additionally motivating that if you can weave on the same tools while multitasking, then I can do this with my full attention and focus! 😆

This is the BEST instructional video I have ever watched. Thank you for cheering up my world.

You are incredibly funny! I love your sense of humor.

"Hi Pedro, I'm weaving" cracked me up for some reason

Really helpful and clear tutorial! Thanks for showing how to get started with pretty much just stuff you have around the house, and stripping the process down to the simplest approach. I know there are ways to make a heddle out of things like a small picture frame and popsicle sticks, and I'm sure I can make something into a suitable shuttle. Heaven knows I have enough fiber! I've been meaning to give backstrap weaving a try for a long time - now I have no excuses left. 😊 Thank you!

If you have a good knife, like an exacto knife style, then you can surely use a wide range of material. Sometimes thin plastic (think agenda cover) is the easiest and less time consuming but also just as useable as something with popsicle sticks

Thank you so much... I spent all afternoon trying to find an answer and by accident found you and the answer.. you are a gem, to be sure.

This video was so helpful - THANK YOU! Weaving while sledding was hilarious - weaving while weaving - too funny!

Howdy Clare - fantastic - I can watch you weave all day - lovelovelove this mini heddle - Thank you so much for sharing. Stay safe.

Thank you so much for this video!! I have had a backstrap loom for a few years and could never figure out how to use it. This was super helpful. So glad to see that I can weave while tap dancing! LOL You are hilarious!

You've got such a great sense of humor! Love the tutorial.

First, I don't ever comment on videos. Second, I was watching your video so I could see how to make my own backstrap loom with heddle, but after watching your video I am heading to your site to purchase from you because you are hilarious and I want to support the work you are bringing into the world. Thanks for the laughs and practical information. You are awesome

Thank you for a very good video! The best I have seen so far explaining the whole from warping to start weaving process. Helps me as a beginner a lot.

im glad it helped bc I think some of the cuts actually cut it out (edgars edited it as a non weaver so sometimes it just zoomed across haha) But we are finally ready for more videos. As you see our son now is bigger and there is time:) Happy weaving to you and if you have any questions follow the internet trail to write me.

My loom arrived yesterday - beautifully packaged - can't wait to get started!

Great tutorial...love the versatility of all the places you can weave!

Thank you so much for this! I just ordered a band weaving kit today and cannot wait to get started! Very clear video

I have been confused for so long on this; the way you explained the process was exactly what I needed. Thank you!

I hope your weaving has taken an adventurous course of its own! thank you for your comment Jess. if you have any additional questions on weaving, just shoot me a message

Cute! I loved the “while your..” multitasking Part. Good video! Thank you.

This is the best and most comprehensive video for the basic technique. Very helpful.

This is so awesome and simple, I did my first weaving on an 8x10" frame loom that I made by knocking nails into the top and bottom of the frame, I also plan on making a much larger loom from a 12"x 34" canvas frame, but this is so much simpler to do then the larger backstrap looms I've seen, if I tried sitting on the floor and using them I'd never be able to get up!! 🤣🤣🤣

I LOVE the "Places to Weave" suggestions!! I happen to knit in places like that... the airport is a GREAT place to weave...starts a LOT interesting conversations with people of ALL ages!! lol :)

This was just exactly what I was looking for. Fun and really informative! Thank you so much for putting this up.

Excellent guide to using a rigid heddle - the warping explanation was particularly useful, especially about the reed hook.

Thank you for such an informative & entertaining tutorial! I laughed so much & yet learnt so much too.

Fabulous tutorial. Thank you. I've always wondered how to twist the warp threads when you finish off. Now I know thanks to you.

Thanks so much for making this video! I’ve had a backstrap loom lying around and lost the instructions for using it, but now I finally feel excited about setting it up!

well then get weaving sista’! :) there is a little learning curve, as with anything, but once you experiment you will already be having fun.

Loved your instruction video! 😂 my favorite so far ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😁👍🏻

I just can't! 😂 You are hilarious and I am hooked! Will try this before 2020 for sure!

Great tutorial and I love all your different multitasking suggestions for where you can weave - ha ha x

You can also do it when you are leaving your husband," Right that's it, I'm weaving!"

Omg, loved this, the explanation, the hmm, weaving?!🙈😁, the way you are, your humor and yeah, everything 😍👍👌thank you 🙏

You crack me up! As if I would combine vacuuming with ANYTHING! Ha! Never weaved! Your video makes it look very easy! Thanks!!

Thank you ! Thank you ! I've been trying to figure how to do this, but I haven't found one that was clear about the basics. So, so helpful.

I have got one of those heddle you demonstrated on. Never sure how to use it. Thank you so much for this information.

Thanks for the simple explanation! Just what I was looking for. Love Pedro too hahaha

Classic! You are a great teacher and so funny!

Funny lady and great video and very informative on weaving. Ty for sharing

Love this! Slightly intimidated. Want to use this for Wayuu bags. I also checked into split ply braiding. This might be my go to. Thanks for the video!

The places where you can weave are grandious!

Tía eres estupenda!!! Además de hacer cosas muy bonitas,tienes un humor genial. Ole,ole.

You make it look easy I have to try this thank you

Loved this, great (amusing) tutorial! I'll have to try outdoor sports while weaving, somehow it just never came up before ❤

I loved the video. I want to get a rigged shuttle now and give it a go.

Really love the tutorial! thank you so much for the instructions!

Love the weaving anywhere montage very funny but also true

Wow- this is awesome!!

Это просто волшебство. Золотые руки, пусть никогда не болят ручки.

You're funny! Thanks for this video. I've seen pictures or clips of people backstrap weaving. They were wider with more intricate patterns, so the simplicity of the basic set up wasn't clear. I watched this and I can do this!

You got hella patience. I really enjoyed this tutorial.

i love this. i have been wanting to get into weaving as a way to get in touch with my native american roots. 1/4 Navajo.
