Basic, yet just what I needed. I bought a little $5 loom off Amazon that did not come with any instructions, so here I am. While its usage was mostly intuitive, it was still good to see & hear how a loom is worked. It would have been great if you showed the final step of what to do once finished, but I just made a logical leap and cut each thread, then knotted the two ends together. Thanks for the post & the Lesson!
Finally i found someone that explains weaving well enough for idiots like me, however i still don't know how to finish it off 'cause everyone leaves that important bit off!! help somebody!!!
I end my project an inch or three early, and then weave scrap yarn to finish. When I take it off the loom, I individually pull out the scrap yarn and tie together the ends of the warp (or whatever you call the vertical string. LOL)
It kind of depends what look you're going for, and what is best suited for your project. There are ways to set up the loom with one continuous warp thread, allowing you to make a four-selvage cloth with clean edges, or fringe is a pretty popular approach, too. You just twist or braid the warp threads across the unfinished edge. Also, a lot of rug-finishing techniques have some cross-application in tapestry. They give a sturdy edge, and some allow you to hide the warp ends on the back of the finished piece. If you can get your hands on Peter Collingwood's book,The Techniques of Rug-Weaving, it's a very good technical resource in general, and he has a whole chapter on finishing techniques. Also, there are PDFs of it floating around, so if you're just trying weaving out, you don't have to buy it immediately (or all, I guess).
thanks for the nice simple demo. Helped me get the idea of how the weaving works straight in my head. I am so glad you used large weaves and only a few rows to make it easy to see what you are doing. even with your arm in the way, it did not really hinder my understanding. that is just where you pushed the yarn through the gap. thanks again.
Is so nice and I miss my country.
Super super super
wow, this is cool.
What wool are you using
inexpensive acrylic for this

Best video tutorial I found to use with small wall hanging out I received as a gift. Thank you!
Thanks
Can;t see because either your hand or arm blocks the view

Thanks! I'm gonna let me daughter try this

Thanks a lot for this - very helpful!
It's not easy to do. How can you do it?
you're a fantastic dad!!
What is the name of the tool that the yarn is wrapped around?
That would be the Shuttle :)
Hi person
Great video well explained
Great video well explained
Ditto Violin's question.
Your arm was blocking the view of what you were doing with the shuttle!!!
Is it possible to make a piece longer once done filling the board?
not with this loom - it is just for a simple example
omg that a great tutorial i buy a loom 300+ dlls i didn't understand how to used it. Thank you keep videos coming please!!!
ye it was good to see this done on a large scale, makes it much clearer and simplifies the learning process thank you

Thanks for showing me this. I needed a clear tutorial on a really simple loom :D
this could be a useful beginers video, but your arms seem to be in the way for some of the crucial bits of information. thanks for the demo.
