    Great tip. I also make the first and last warp thread double thickness. It helps a lot.

    Thank you! I’m new to weaving and my loopy, messy edges almost caused me to give up but I gave this a try. It has made all the difference and has given me the confidence to continue to improve. I have learned so much from you and you on line classes are priceless.

    OMG, Kelly… you’ve opened my eyes to so many weaving possibilities! I’m especially grateful for this tip for the thread in a hole solution, I now have perfect tight edges on my weaving project 🤩 I’m seriously considering joining your weaving school 🥰 cheers and greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱 🌷

    THANK YOU SOO much for solving this annoying problem. I noticed this from the very first project I wove, just a few short weeks age. I couldn't understand why it was happening, and thought it had something to do with the fact that I was right handed, since the problem was always on my right side. Clipped that slot bugger and now all is perfect! You are the absolute best instructor. Stay healthy and enjoy your new home.

    Like some of the other ladies one side was always neater than the other. This will be great on just a plain weave where I am not counting patterns. Thank you for this great tip.

    • @KellyCasanova
      @KellyCasanova  4 роки тому

      That's one of the downsides - you have to go with an odd number of ends. If anyone has a workaround for that, please let us know! 😊

    Can you tell me what are the "sticks" you are using? It looks like they make it easier to start straight lines. :) Thanks!

    • @KellyCasanova
      @KellyCasanova  2 роки тому +1

      The sticks I use at the start of the weaving are cardboard separators. I use them to help organise the warp and close the gaps before I start weaving.

  • @johnmichaels6794
    @johnmichaels6794 3 роки тому

    I was pondering this and am stuck on how cutting the one thread won't leave an unattached thread when you get to the end of the weave.

    • @KellyCasanova
      @KellyCasanova  3 роки тому +1

      That hasn't happened to me, but if it did, I would just weight the loose thread over the back of the loom. Easy ☺️

    Since you are dropping a thread, would this be a problem when using a pattern?

    • @KellyCasanova
      @KellyCasanova  3 роки тому

      Yes, that would have to be taken into account 😊

  • @marlenemead4931
    @marlenemead4931 3 роки тому

    Could that thread have been cut off instead of untiying it?

    • @KellyCasanova
      @KellyCasanova  3 роки тому +1

      I guess so, I just like to retie the bunch to tension it nicely again after removing the slot thread.
