Basic Hemstitching

A step-by-step tutorial showing how to hemstitch on the rigid-heddle loom. This process interlocks the warp and weft threads on handwoven fabrics so that they don’t unravel when you take the fabric off the loom. Master these two easy steps and the hemstitch will secure your fabric and add a beautiful detail at the beginning and end of your handwoven fabric.

    This is the best, clearest, easiest to follow hemstitch tutorial I've found on KZread! Thank you for these clear and precise instructions. You included information so a brand new weaver can understand the purpose and process, and when and how I may want to use hemstitching. Thanks!

    This is the best and clearest teaching of hem stitching that I have seen and I have watched many. I finally get it and can go in both directions without contorting myself or the loom. Many many thanks!!

    To those wondering why Darrin didn't make more vids, you can visit his website and there's a message about his having to deal with a cancer diagnosis in 2019 and then the pandemic. He doesn't say if he came down with cancer or someone close, but it would seem to have meant the end [for now?] of his continuing providing weaving tutorials. I sincerely hope he's made it through. His website and video channel had just started in "19 and are still available to view.

    Very good. Simple and easy to follow. How do you deal with the hem if you didn't use enough tail length. First time I heard about hem stitching at the beginning of the weave. I'll remember to do that next time. Today will be my first ever attempt to do this technique. Thanks

    The difference is in the tightening one needs to do to secure the woven edge. An embroidery blanket stitch is formed the same way, but generally is not tightened.

    There are multiple ways to finish ends of weaving. If you don't want fringe, then you should hem the ends either with a sewing machine or by hand. 5/8", doubled works great.

    Even if you're going to hem your woven cloth, hemstitching will secure the edge without needed machine sewing. I prefer sewing hems by hand and it's easy to turn under a hemstitched edge [fringe trimmed close] without fraying or using a sewing machine.
