Weavers will often need to measure their warp yarns before putting them on (or dressing) their loom. This can be done on a very basic tool called a warping board. In this video, I show you how I measure and calculate the number of warp yarns I am preparing for a project. I have lots of tips and options so that you can decide what works best for you.
Please feel free to leave questions and comments below. I read and respond to them all.
