Thabk again for a great video. Always good to see how a fellow weaver warps her loom! I was only thinking about the peg problem yesterday when I warped up with 8/2 cotton for some teatowels... I lashed the warp onto the front beam to get even tension but the outside threads were so much longer than the middle! Maybe I need the stepladder!

I use a bag of cat litter. The fine bentonite type. Even if you don't have cats, it can come in handy for messes...

I just got my first rigid heddle loom. I’m enjoying your video and the different approach to warping. I am researching to educate myself before my first attempt at a project. When you’re drawing the thread over the apron bar it looks like you’re alternating over and under every other time. Is that correct or am I just confused? 😊

Thank you so much for this video. What a great way to ensure all the warp threads are the same length and avoid waste. The idea of using the cardboard strips attached to the paper is a genius idea- definitely going to try this next time! The tip on checking the tension on both the upper and lower heddle positions was another brilliant tip. I noticed that you didn’t knot the warp onto the front apron rod after you were happy with the tension…….does it never slip? Thank you. Your videos are so clear with lots of information for a new weaver. 😄

@Curly_n_Yarny

You are welcome 😍 I hope all those tips will help you! To answer you, no the knots I made on the front apron have never slip in my experience! At first, I used to tie them once and then tie them with bunny ears. But once I forgot and I realised it didn't change anything. So now I never do it 😅

I've been struggling to find something besides that stupid peg. Thank u for the wonderful idea.

@Curly_n_Yarny

Thanks to you! 😄 For this project, the warp is actually 4 threads of thin acrylic yarn twisted together to make one thicker thread. But, I do wove other projects with 8/2 for both warp and weft 🧵

At 22:23 in the video does it matter that you’re pulling the threads to the side while winding them on rather than holding them straight out in front? I notice the threads farthest from you are longer because of this and wondered if that could possibly affect the tension.

Easy, cheap, warping peg recipe: 1 flower pot big enough to hold 4lbs plaster of Paris, making sure any hole is plugged since plaster of Paris is added to water, not the other way around. 1 T -made from PVC, end caps and joints to assemble... Place T in prepared wet plaster of paris and let set a full 24 hrs before use! Enjoy!!!

Thank you for this great video. What causes the shed to be a "messy"? It great in the up position and a mess and doesn't have a space in the down position. Any tips would be grateful.

@Curly_n_Yarny

2 жыл бұрын

There are a few things that could cause that! There is one tip that I could give you and that works in most cases. The tip is to use a pick-up stick or anything similar to that. Then you would need to put your heddle in the down position. Slide the pick-up stick in the shed behind the heddle. Then slide the stick to the back beam. This should help with your tension in the down shed.

@@Curly_n_Yarny Thank you for the response. A fellow weaver took a look and my yarn was too thick for the size heddle I was using. Something so simple that I totally overlooked. So grateful for the weaving community.

I have a question in regards to the length of your fabric. You said you want to have 2.5 m. Is that already calculating in extra for the beginning and end waste/fringe on the project? How much do you calculate for that?

@Curly_n_Yarny

2 жыл бұрын

Good question! For this project, I wanted to weave for about 2m and I consider that I will have about 50cm of waste yarn. I normally need about 25cm at the beginning to attach the warp to the front apron. Then, I usally have around 25cm at the end of the warp that cannot be woven. I hope this help 😊

So if you are doubling it, when warping you would pull a loop through both the slot and the hole on the heddle? I've seen several people mention it but I couldn't find any videos on how to "double" it exactly.

It would be nice if you could demonstrate the technique of warping onto the loom with tension so that one can get even tension without issues. I find that by myself it is more difficult than if I had someone holding the yarn. I am new to weaving so I am just getting the technique down.
