Making Ghiordes Knots

Jane demonstrates weaving and trimming ghiordes knots (also known as rya), a great way to add texture to your tapestry weaving by creating a lush pile.
This weaving was done on an Arras Tapestry Loom - www.schachtspi...
Jane used a Schacht tapestry beater for the creation of this project - www.schachtspi...

You're welcome 😊

[@nancyleedunn]

We can't see your hands half the time and mine isn't looking like your's and without seeing your hands when you do the first few steps, it's hard to tell what I'm doing wrong. :(

[@schachtspindle]

Welcome to our channel! We hope you find our videos helpful for your weaving journey! The scissors used are appliqué scissors. :)

[@moniquefouquet3810]

C’est très beau .est-ce que je peux vous demander quelle laine vous employez pour faire un tapis ? Je voudrais aussi savoir si l’on doit faire les rangs de maintiens avec de la laine ou avec du fil de chaine ? Merci

[@camilorojas1744]

What do you do for the next row. Do you pick the same warp or you alternate

[@schachtspindle]

Great question! Jane discusses this further in her free online, self-paced Tapestry Weave Along online course: schachtspindle.com/products/explore-tapestry-weave-along

[@carmellaidlaw3350]

This might be a stupid question, but can you use this method on a macraweave instead please? It is exactly what I want to do but without the loom. Thank you

[@elizabethgrossman8715]

What type of scissors are those? Thank you!!

[@alinerolim9044]

Thanks for posting that. Great tutorial. What’s the name of the special trimming scissors again?

[@schachtspindle]

They're called applique scissors. We're glad you liked the video.

[@alinerolim9044]

@@schachtspindle thank you so much. You’re very knowledgeable. Well done for sharing.

[@sybilq2509]

can you tell us more about the yarn you used for the warp, knots and plain weave weft? also, how many end per inch for the warp?

[@schachtspindle]

You can find project specs in Jane's first weave-along post at www.schachtspindle.com/explore-tapestry-weave-along-week-1-warping/

[@barasageraldo7731]

[@user-rt4yi3cd8i]

احسنتي الشرح واضح جدا

[@vashtipritchett7253]

Do you plain weave in-between each row of rya knots?

[@schachtspindle]

Yes, two rows of plainweave between the knot rows.
