How to replace a warp yarn

- In episode 52 of A Handwoven Experience, I'm walking you through an easy, no-stress method for replacing a broken warp yarn.
We all have those days. But now, you don't need to be nervous about snapped warp yarns! I've got you covered! (This is also a great method to use if you forget to include floating selvedges for your twill pattern - just in case!)
Planning a Weaving Project with Confidence -
Great news! I will be hosting a live class all about planning a weaving project on Wednesday, June 2 at 7:00 pm (CST)! I'm so excited to dive into this fun, informative class! My goal is that by the time you are finished, you'll feel ready to develop amazing weaving project plans on your own and with complete gusto!
All registration takes place through EventBrite. Copy and paste this link to take you right to it (www.eventbrite.... I cannot WAIT for you to join me for this fabulous event!! See you soon! And Happy Weaving!
Great to know! Thanks
You're welcome!
Thank you for this. I used a toilet paper roll, did a few vertical slits and folded the top over. This created a phlange at the top so yarn won't side off. I used the loop you showed and a small metal object for a light amount of weighted tension. Perfect selvedge edge now :-)
Wow!! Look at you!! So clever!! Great job!
Thanks - I needed this - had a floating selvedge fray on me! This should work the same way, I think.
Absolutely! Replacing a floating selvedge should be even easier because you don't need to worry about threading it through a heddle! Good luck to you!
You are brilliant! You give me hope I can figure this weaving thing out and be half decent with it, I time that is lol
Ahhh, I'm so glad it was helpful!!!
Put the yarn inside the canister and snap the lid over the warp end. No need to tie half hitch outside in your method. Then, when you need more length, pop off the lid and draw out more warp.
Oooh, great idea!! Thank you!
That's a half hitch. Great video.
Thank you so much!!
Thanks for this info! Just broke 3 different threads!
Oooh, Sandra! I feel your pain! Hopefully those will be the last ones & you'll have nothing but smooth sailing from here on out!
I just started a project and boom. Three gone.
so I'm winding a new project on my loom and broke a warp thread. Do I fix it the same way as your video since I have not yet started weaving??
Hi Diane! It depends on how far you are into the process! If you've already wound your project, or are in the process, I'd recommend tying your replacement yarn to the front, thread it where it needs to go, and simply weight it off the back. Does that make sense? Let me know if you have follow up questions!!
May I ask where you source your weaving yarn from?
Absolutely! Great question!
I use a couple different sources. First off, I love supporting my local weaving store, Three Moons Fiberworks (www.threemoonsfiberworks.com/ ).
If I know I'm placing a huge order, I like to use Great Northern Weaving (greatnorthernweaving.com/).
And because I like using a big variety of colors & fibers, I have purchased portions of fellow weavers's stashes when they were moving or downsizing.
I hope that helps!!! Let me know if I can answer any other questions!
That loop around the film canister is called a half hitch.
Thank you!!
