    I took a riddle weaving class several months ago and am just now getting my new loom out of the box so I couldn't remember how to get started. Thanks for a GREAT video to refresh my mind and get me started on my first project on my own!

    I have been watching various tutorials/demonstrations all morning. Some stretched on FOREVER and I still felt I didn't have a handle on how the loom works. Yours was the clearest video so far and did it in 10 minutes. Thank you!

    Loved this video. You mentioned you "might need a friend to help" when you wind the warp (to keep decent tension on the warp when you wind) This is one of the biggest challenges in the process; keeping the tension right without asking someone to help. I searched the Internet for a solution to this issue, but never found anything. So, I came up with the "Solo Warper" and my partner built it for me. Now I have no issues with winding. Works perfectly on any warp length. Instead of using a warping peg that attaches to a table (and can slip off at the worst times possible,) you simply place the Solo where you want the warp to end, (no table or clamps needed,) loop the warp ends on the main peg, secure it with a cross dowel when you're finished and then start winding. The Solo has wheel brakes that you can adjust, to keep the right tension on regular floors or carpet. Wind until the main dowel touches the outside of the loom (which is the perfect length to leave for threading), cut the yarn and then thread the heddles. Winding the warp took a fraction of the time with perfect tension and, more importantly, no 'yarn accidents that take hours to untangle.' Finally, a solution for solo weavers.....

    Thankyou for demonstrating this. I have first started just making a mug rug using a handmade cardboard loom. Then I remembered I had a knitting loom that doubled as a frame loom or tapestry loom. As a child I had a toy heddle loom that I really enjoyed making little things with. I think I would very much like to have a heddle loom. my husband will have his teaching certificate by September and already has a position available so I’m looking forward to purchasing one then. But I’m having fun learning on the 28” tapestry loom at the moment. I have the bug for sure

You have made something that seemed very complicated, very easy. Thank you very much.

Я показала ребятам 5 класса на внеурочных занятиях как ткать на бёрде. увлеклись даже мальчики. Бёрды мы делаем из бумажных трубочек - самый простой и доступный инструмент для ткачества.

    @BHBsings Hi, the over and under at the back stick when you are warping is only to ensure each each is around the back stick - you will know if you do it wrong as the end will come out through the slot as you take it to the peg at the other end. With direct warping there is no need for a cross - the threads are already threaded in order through the reed. Hope this explains.

    @AshfordNz  11 років тому

    Hi Katherine, sorry for the delayed answer, we have just returned from our annual holidays. You warp your loom by taking a "loop" which is in effect 2 threads through each of the slots first then you wind the warp onto the back roller, cut the loop and then you take one of the threads and thread it through each of the eyes (the small holes in the reed). If you need further information you can look at our tutorials page on our website to see the step by step instructions. Happy Weaving!

  • @AshfordNz
    @AshfordNz  12 років тому

    @loveleopardprint HI, to do your standard hounds tooth (in black and white for explanation purposes) warp as normal but do one slot black then one slot white continue across the width of your warp. When you are weaving you will need two shuttles - one white one black. Weave two rows black followed by two rows white. Repeat to end - note always wind the shuttle in use around the other colour at the end of rows. Happy weaving!!
