The setting up sounds overwhelming but the more I watch, the more I realize how much fun this could be. I'm becoming enamored with yarn crafts. Crocheting was first, then I wanted to start looming but that wasn't much of my thing, now I'm learning to knit which I love. Hopefully I can try this someday.
crocheting was definitely the best choice to start with, as its the most forgiving. I've done knitting, crocheting, weaving/looming, sewing and felting and it's honestly so amazing to see your own ideas and crafts come to life with your own hands...

im happy to see this because here in indonesia, young people right now didnt really know how to weave or we called it "tenun", maybe because it used to be so big and heavy and traditional and difficult and so traditional (old culture). but i see that the basic is actually really simple and easy and make me want to tenun my own scarf. if you are curious about indonesian waeving, just googling Indonesian tenun :D . Thankyou for sharing this and sorry for my bad english.
I'm from the south. My poor ancestors made their own clothing this very way. They cherished pieces of manufactured cloth so much that they saved bags of scraps from which to make quilts. I always wondered what it would be like to make clothing from cotton I had grown myself. You answered that question. Thank you!
I am once thankful for the random videos that pop up in my feed I had bought a brand new loom like this from good it's a year 95or 93 model and it still has all of the original pieces including the yarn
Just bought one of these and it's brilliant. It's not just Kate who can warp it up in twenty minutes, I actually managed the same and it was only my second warp ever (the first took me about 4 hours on a bigger and less-quality loom). I love love love this loom!
Thankyou so much. After watching "many" videos on how to warp a loom with a heddle bar. Your's is the first that made sense, had clear instructions that I could follow, no distracting music or words written on the screen to try and read and watch what you are doing at the same time. Most importantly I could see what you where doing. After many failed attempts I was about to give up, just from pure frustration then I found your video. I can't thankyou enough. 😊🌻
My first time stopping and checking this video out. What an incredible beautiful scarf you made here. This has peaked my curiosity into learning how to do this. I already crochet and I love yarn. Thank you so much for the tutorial.
that was a beautiful tutorial , really inspiring ! you were very clear and concise and calmly spoken, and the music was just right, unlike lots of other youtube tutorials haha. im gonna have to learn how to do this :) thanks so much!
Gosh I wish I had the level of energy and positive vibes you always put out there. If one isn't in a good mood at the beginning of your video you will be by the end.
I love to learn .. I made my own loom from a old patio table so I started looking for lap loom ideas... then came across this beautiful little 10 inch rigid heddle weaving loom and i was like hooked. So.. I kept watching a learning and at the same time saving to buy this one The Ashford Samplelt Rigid Heddle 10 inch weaving loom. Today after 3 months of saving $$ I found this one on Esty.. and I purchased it today...free shipping and no taxes.. I am so excited to start a new venture in rigid heddle loom.. weaving..later i can purchase a stand and a extra heddle.. I also purchase a book that has lots of ideas on rigid heddle looming weaving patterns. The price is amazingly low.. I know how expensive a large Rigid Heddle Loom can cost... but for starters this has lot for the price and that is just fine for me.
that's beautiful...I remember my aunty Maria, in Greece many years ago, had a huge weaving machine and spinning wheel. She spun wool and made blankets and other fabrics, quite amazing, a dying art, which is being brought back to life
I am new to weaving and can assure you it takes time and patience. I have an Ashford loom and I find it is of good quality. This video is as simple and clear as it get
Thank you this was very helpful! You're the first person I've seen who has taken the weave off the loom at the end and shown how to tie it off as well so that is much appreciated.
yo i don’t even weave but watching this lady’s videos are so relaxing and knock me tf out. And i have major trouble sleeping. So thank you ash ford lady, thank you
Thank you, Kate. You answered a few questions. Perhaps Ashford could consider mfg a hinged-top style of rigid heddle, to eliminate the cutting and threading in dress the loom. Project fiber end-waste (when not tasseled) can add up. The heddle top-bar could be hinged at one end (mine is wing-nut), and all tines are open-slot from usual bottom or half measure, but all the way to the top, where a fine guage polymer cross-x in the heddle's tine tops (as in easy-thread needles) would easily hold sleyed heddle fibers in position, till the fully dressed heddle's top-bar would again secured for weaving position. It would certainly also ease warp color changes and unexpected fiber flaws or breaks. It's great spending less time sleying and more time weaving. Thanks.
I just tried to start learning for monday's exam. I don't know what im doing here. I dont even have saplmelt loom. I didn't even understand this video.
How is this so boring and fascinating at the same time - now I want to buy a weaving loom and make yarn fabrics... Thanks for making this - intriguing - love it...

Great tut. I have issues with my scarf edges, so that hold + angle tip was helpful. I'm by myself crafting too. Still tons of conversation, and half the time I even win arguments that arise.
I don't know why this was in my recommended list, even weave or do anything like it. I am glad it did though. It's amazing how much work and thought put into stuff like that!
LOL...my husband and children hated the clackity clack of my knitting machines so much they put them in my mother's attic.....guess what I'm buying next!!!!
Hi Kate, love your videos! As a newby weaver having just purchased a SampleIt loom and living in country Australia the videos have been invaluable to me. I would love to see you show us all the looms Ashford sells going on why you would choose RH, Knitters, Table and how to go about choosing size and shaft numbers. To see the actual looms side by side would be awesome and such a help to choose my next loom. Kyle at Paradise Fibres in the US does a great comparision between RH but I want more info on Ashford. Thanks so much!
Oooohh!! This has only increased my interest in weaving with a loom. Some people here talked about the cost of the loom, but when you think about it, it's just the initial investment. If you consider not having to buy any more equipment, as long as the loom lasts (which will be for a long time barring any accidents or the like), & if you get a lot of use out of it, the cost over time is actually quite low. I've always been fascinated by weaving, & this seems like a good tool to use for it. A good fit for small spaces, & such beautiful items can be made. I'm going to look for this or a similar product here on my part of Canada. ☺
That was so cool. I never thought about the mechanics of a loom. My closest contact was like 25 years ago at school where you had to weave some strings in a shoe box. No idea why YT showed me your video but it was really interesting.

Hi, The threads are in the eyes and the slots - when you move the reed it changes the shed (crosses the threads over the weft yarn) to lock it in place. Thanks
Thanks so much for this- I just bought a children's loom to eventually give my not quite 3 year old daughter- I figured I should learn how to use it first- a week bit smaller than the one shown, but not much actually- I suspect setting up the loom the first time will be the most difficult part! or at least you make the rest look easy!
You can wind the warp on as long as you want (as long as it fits on the back roller). You can weave one project and cut it off and weave another - it is a good idea to make the warp for more than one project as it save you time. Joins are no problem at all, there are many options depending on the yarn. The Ashford Book of Rigid Heddle Weaving is a great book full of instruction and techniques. www.ashford.co.nz/products/books/product/ashford-book-of-rigid-heddle-weaving
Can you buy these looms in the United States? I've never seen or heard of these before. Thank you so much for sharing this tutorial! Much appreciated :)
This was helpful and I am glad I found it. I got the 32 in. Ashford loom recently and have been loving it! I did learn some tips here that I can use. Great video!
Pat Portran I wouldn’t call someone that thinks it’s a lot of work lazy. It’s pretty cool, but that’s pretty intricate to try. I know the loom and material used probably wasn’t cheap either.
How does this have 2 million views for a video made 3 1/2 years ago? Don't get me wrong, it's a well instructed, organized video that explains exactly how to use a loom. I just never expected a craft video to get 2 million views.
Thomas Finas crazy right. She does a great job. But the whole video she is just calmly taking the viewers through the instructions like we are doing a basic color by numbers. Yet I watched it. I often fall down a you tube hole and end up in the weirdest places, I even watch videos in languages I can’t speak. There is clearly something wrong with me.
This is a sample loom. To try out your warp, weft threads to see if you want to use them (is the design pleasing/colorways), and then warp up your bigger loom, whether it's a bigger table loom or a floor loom.
This is a really good tutorial, and showcased how the loom works. I‘m already loom knitting, but I have the Flexee links from KB, and you can put several of the stiff ones together to make a mini weaving loom. Kinda tempted to try, to be honest. =)
Only you can answer that. Why do people usually watch videos? To amuse themselves or to learn. Either way, it's not wasted time when you wind up just a bit more knowledgable than you were before you watched. If you're not interested in doing it yourself, fine, but look at it this way, you learned about weaving, one of the most ancient crafts, still done today, all over the world. You've gained knowledge about how most of the fabric in the clothing you wear was woven. Big industrial machines or small, the process just differs in scale.
pardon my spelling.. I am so excited ... and.. can't wait for my delivery date sometime 9/7 or 9/11 for the Ashford Samplelt 10 inch rigid heddle loom as well as tried it's late over here in the west coast..
in germany kindergarten is for ages 0-6, so all the time before the first grade, the last year before first grade preschool takes place in kindergarten... hope it helped :)
Wooooow that's niiicceee it seems like a lot of work but then it doesn't lol. I just bought a loom knitter. Weaving seems cool to I think when I get loom kitting down pat I will give this a try. Beautiful scarf😊 thanks for sharing.
it's repetitive but really calming. i remember i did this in elementary school for career day and i decided, why the hell not. they had a bigger loom, not sure what they were making but they needed helpers so i helped out as best as i could. i kind of want to get into it again.
This is a great beginners loom...I say this but I don't have one yet. The scarf you made is almost the same shade as one I bought last year at the Blind School in Parnell👍🏼
The setting up sounds overwhelming but the more I watch, the more I realize how much fun this could be. I'm becoming enamored with yarn crafts. Crocheting was first, then I wanted to start looming but that wasn't much of my thing, now I'm learning to knit which I love. Hopefully I can try this someday.

Hi Patrick, the cardboard warp sticks are to separate the layers as you wind the warp on. to keep even tension.
You made this process so easy. I had no problems getting started.

Great video with clear and concise instructions....fantastic teacher...Thanks!!

is there a limit to how long a piece u can make at one time pls? and are joins noticeable if u want to make a piece longer or wider pls? thanks! :)
You can wind the warp on as long as you want (as long as it fits on the back roller). You can weave one project and cut it off and weave another - it is a good idea to make the warp for more than one project as it save you time.

man... when i was 10 i whent to this ladies house to make a carpet and her loom was massive so its so strange to see a tiny lil one
Ro Draws en francais svp
This is a sample loom. To try out your warp, weft threads to see if you want to use them (is the design pleasing/colorways), and then warp up your bigger loom, whether it's a bigger table loom or a floor loom.
This is a really good tutorial, and showcased how the loom works. I‘m already loom knitting, but I have the Flexee links from KB, and you can put several of the stiff ones together to make a mini weaving loom. Kinda tempted to try, to be honest. =)
i am a 12 year old boy with no interest in this stuff.
why did i spend ~10 minutes of my life watching this
Only you can answer that. Why do people usually watch videos? To amuse themselves or to learn. Either way, it's not wasted time when you wind up just a bit more knowledgable than you were before you watched. If you're not interested in doing it yourself, fine, but look at it this way, you learned about weaving, one of the most ancient crafts, still done today, all over the world. You've gained knowledge about how most of the fabric in the clothing you wear was woven. Big industrial machines or small, the process just differs in scale.
Because now you are less dumb than your friends who do not have a clue about weaving!!
Cuz deep down inside you want to weave, it is okay it will be our secret
@@hatchling88 I watch tornadoes because I find them interesting.
@Scientifically Void It's calming.

A9HirotoPon is kindergarten english or are you deutsch?
o.O
Kindergarten is a German word I think but we use it in the US. It's the grade between pre-school and 1st grade.
in germany kindergarten is for ages 0-6, so all the time before the first grade, the last year before first grade preschool takes place in kindergarten... hope it helped :)
we use it in Australia
I am an artist and this is something I am interested in learning. Thanks for the video.
This is soo hard and i thought it was loom bands?
Same
Wooooow that's niiicceee it seems like a lot of work but then it doesn't lol. I just bought a loom knitter. Weaving seems cool to I think when I get loom kitting down pat I will give this a try. Beautiful scarf😊 thanks for sharing.

it's repetitive but really calming. i remember i did this in elementary school for career day and i decided, why the hell not. they had a bigger loom, not sure what they were making but they needed helpers so i helped out as best as i could. i kind of want to get into it again.
That's super cool
This is a great beginners loom...I say this but I don't have one yet. The scarf you made is almost the same shade as one I bought last year at the Blind School in Parnell👍🏼
