Best instructions I have ever seen on how to do this technique. Thank you once again for such clear teaching.

Great information - thanks much! It dawned on me watching you thread the knots that winding the lashing yarn onto a knitter's intarsia bobbin first might help keep it under control.

Yes, love it, that would definitely help - a boat shuttle bobbin would work too.

I think I'll try this on my next weave. Thanks

great explanation. When I lash on I like to wind the lashing cord onto a netting shuttle to make it easier to manage. I love lashing on. It really helps me control my tension.

Thank you Kelly! Great instructions as usual. I am going to try this technique on this weave. I usually have tension issues on the edges. I hope this technique will help.

A very welcome explanation ~ thank you!

I find this lashing on technique helps me keep more even tension.

Thanks for the great demo. I am looking forward to trying this method on my next project. I have never really liked tying on directly to the apron rod because it seems to take for ever to get the tension even. And I really like the idea of having less loom waste. (Always looking for ways to conserve--must be my Scottish blood!! LOL!)

@@KellyCasanova Thank you. All I know about weaving, is what I learn on the Web.

You mentioned at the beginning how you usually just tie onto the apron rod, and use this technique with more slippery materials. Is there any reason NOT to use this for all tie ons? I mean, is there a downside to this technique? It appears to me this would allow for easier tensioning.

@KellyCasanova

No, there is no reason not to use it all the time if you want to, it's just a matter of preference 😉 And yes, the tensioning is very good.

Hi Kelly. Hope all is good with you. Does it matter how one ties onto the apron rod in relation to getting a good shed. In your other video you seem to have a pretty decent shed to be able to use a boat shuttle. I'm using an ashford table loom too. Is lashing better or tying directly to the rod with surgeon knots better?

How do you feel your warp tension is as you have rolled it onto the loom? Do you use separators and roll on the warp evenly?

@@KellyCasanova Thank you for responding. My tension is uneven. I loose tension specially at the left side and most times it gets worse as I go. My guess is that when I wind in the back, the way I hold the threads makes the left side longer -because of the position the knob is on my loom (Don’t know if you can visualize this and understand what I am trying to explain) Bottom line? I need one one one instruction -which during these times it’s not a very good idea. Great if you have some tips/suggestions you could share. -Thanks.

@@camilorojas1744 Yes, it is challenging to get even warp tension if warping by yourself. If it's at all possible, ask someone to help you by holding the warp while you wind it on. If that is not possible, you may find that you have more success weighting the warp as it winds on - anything that will allow you to focus more on what you're doing at the back of the loom.

My loom does not have an apron rod; I just tie onto the teeth on the beam. Good information for those looms that do need lashing on.

Hello, I am pretty new here and I have found I have an issue with a lot of uneven warp threads to lash on. Would it work if I tied on extensions to get them all the same length? I don’t want to lose the weave area if I don’t absolutely have to. Thank you for your help.

@KellyCasanova

Жыл бұрын

The idea of lashing on is that you can even out the tension even if your bunches are not the same length. If you have a lot of very uneven warp threads, it might be useful to look at why that is happening. Are you direct warping? Are you using more than one warping peg?

@sheilaadams3260

@@KellyCasanova thank you, I did use multiple warping pegs. This is the first time I used multiple warping pegs. I didn’t realize it would cause this. Some ends are pretty short. Would tieing on extra length and then lashing on work? Your lash on are all perfectly even, so I am confused.

@KellyCasanova

Жыл бұрын

@@sheilaadams3260 Using multiple pegs usually means that you don't have all different lengths of threads. I'm wondering then, did you space the pegs evenly across the warp and did you use an even tension taking the threads around the pegs? As in, were some threads really drooping while others were tight around the pegs?

I noticed this is the desired technique Kate from Ashford likes to use.

So you lash on after threading the heddle? It does not look like it on the video.

@@KellyCasanova pretty true. I’m pretty sure i achieved even tension on nearly all my bundles except the last. I was using a pink yarn to spread the warp out of that hard triangle pattern and the left edge, which had fewer threads then should be in a half inch, just looked off. The weft look way way too loose going through the bundle. So i removed slack. It’s the tightest bundle i have now. I can feel it with a tap.
