Warping made ridiculously simple. Thank you so much for this, especially the tips and tricks.
7 years later, it is still the best video on how to warp. Thank you so much Barbara Elkins! Greetings from Switzerland
Thank you for this video. I don't weave all that often and I always review this video before starting. Please leave it up :)
The best tutorial. I should have come here and said it sooner because I've been watching this video over and over for many years. I now have a HUGE box of beautiful handwoven dishtowels as testament to how good this instruction is.
I've been watching tutorials for weeks now, afraid to "dress" my loom, and yours is the clearest, most easy to understand explanation! Thank you so very much for taking the time to put this together!!!
Thank you for making this video!! We found a Minerva Loom in someone's garbage heap! It's our new treasure. My husband and I watched many videos but this one was so valuable to dress our loom. It helped immensely!! It took us three days and a few meltdowns but we persevered. :)
This video is better than FABULOUS! It was so easy to understand and follow. It was my first warping on my loom. I was hesitate before I began but you made it simple. Thank you so much!
I couldn't have done this without this video, Barbara's instructions were clear, and helpful. Being able to dress my loom side by side with this video made it very stress free. Thank you!!!!!
I haven't woven in a long time so I watched this as a refresher to make sure I had not forgotten anything. The one thing that I DID remember is to NEVER comb through the warp as you beam or to "thumb" it as she described it. It just makes for loose ends and makes a mess later on. Grasp the warp firmly and give it a good shake. You can even thwack it against the bottom of the beater and the breast beam. You get much better results that way. Also, I found that using sticks or cardboard at first when beaming helps take care of all the lumps and bumps caused by the thickness of knots, apron rods and strings, etc. After a round or two with cardboard, strips of kraft paper or paper bags (IF you can even find them anymore!) are fine.
I love watching videos with Barbara - she's so thorough and patient in her descriptions. I really feel like I'm sitting next to her listening to her teach me. This is a great video - thank you!
Thank you. Thank you. Finally, a video and instructions that make sense to me. Ms. Elkins, you are wonderful. I hope to see more of your videos.
This is the clearest explanation I have _ever_ seen for how to do this! Some really clever suggestions too...I would never have thought of securing the lease sticks that way... Thanks!
I have been weaving for a year and have a lot of trouble with warps twisting. I just took a formal class and am learning to use lease sticks for the first time. So very thankful you took the time to make this video. It cements what I learned in class!
Thanks for the feedback. We will have a video for winding a warp as soon as we can!
Wow Thankyou so much for this video it is the best one I have watched for warping a loom I am so glad I found you🤗
She makes a lot of work look SO easy! Thanks for a wonderful video.
this youtube is fabulous!!...you quietly walked me thru the various steps and my very first warping on the loom was painless and actually easy!...thanks for producing this video...
I found this to be a fabulous video! The instructions were clear and included a few pointers that are not on other similar videos. Thank you so much!!
You made it look so much easier than I thought it would be. I'll refer to this later I'm sure. Thanks
Thankyou so much for explaining this , I`ve had so many problems warping the loom ;now it all makes sense ! Last time I warped the loom I ended up cutting it off, this one has gone on SO easily ! Thank you for demystifying this . Mrs Elkins you are a star !
Wow...I've been weaving for 5 years now on a rigid heddle loom, but just bought my first 4 shaft/4 treadle loom (a Dorset from 1981). This is so different from direct warping! Thanks for being so clear in your explanation of what you do and how to do it. I can't wait to wind my warp and dress my new loom!!!
I'm a front to back warper because that's the way I learned. I am bound and determined to learn back to front; this excellent video will probably help tremendously. Thank you!
This is such a good video. I share it with anyone who has questions about how to dress a loom. Maybe in a year or so I will remember how to do it and not need you. But in the meantime I am so grateful for your instructions and hints.
I saw this video a year ago and didn't understand half of it. All those strings and rods and huh I don't even have a low warp- or clothbeam on my simple jack loom?! Yikes! It didn't get in my way to dress my second hand loom though, always a tangled mess but...it got dressed, in the end. I'm kind of proud of it in a way, I just tried something and it got me to weave scarfs and it made me really happy. Now I'm on the look out for a better loom, 8 instead of 4 shafts, countermarch instead of a jack loom. And I decided to look up some tips for warping, to learn it the (a) right way, with less mess and stress. I found this one again, watched it AND I GET IT. Tiihii. It sounds silly, may be, but for me it's a sign I did learn, I thought myself some stuff, otherwise I wouldn't understand it now :) I can't wait to get my 'new' loom and warp it this way entirely, not just some parts of it. It must be heaven haha.
These are so helpful. Thank you so much.
Oh my goodness I have been warping front to back and watched this video and it has cut my time in half! Thank you for sharing this !
Incredibly helpful video. I watch a section and then go work on my warp/loom! Thank you!
The counting threads are a game changer.
I discovered your video recently, and have been delighted with the instructions, as I am using a 60" 16 shaft LeClerc Nilart. I have had a difficult time warping this Beast without lots of contortions and bad words. Your step by step video helped me warp the loom with absolutely no pain, mistakes or bad words! It is full of excellent and clever ideas. Thanks so much!
Thanks for the great feedback.
Too funny, I've got the exact same loom!
I'm not as lost as I thought I was. Now I have to figure out the 4 headle / 6 treadle thing. ... very good video on warping!
Joel, I actually bought a sectional warp beam for my Schacht Baby Wolf...my other 2 looms are sectional warp Union 36 floor looms and that is what I learned on so I figured I'd stay with what I knew....now to figure out designs in my spare time on the extra treadles and headles...
Joel, it is actually called 4 harnesses(or shafts) and 6 treadles. Heddles are the wires that the threads go through to attach them to a shaft or harness. The reason there are 6 treadles and not just one treadle per harness is so that you can make every balanced (same number of harnesses up and down) tie-up possible on your loom at one time. Two of the treadles can be tied for plain weave and I always put them on the outside two treadles, so that takes care of the 1 + 3 tie-up and the 2 + 4 tie-up. Then I tie the other four treadles to 1 + 2, 2 + 3, 3 + 4, and 4 + 1. Most weaving drafts come with a tie-up and a treadling sequence. Traditionally, you tie empty boxes in the tie-up to a rising shed, so whichever harnesses/shafts are empty in the tie-up, tie to the first treadle, and so on. I hope that helps clarify.
This was very helpful to me! Do you thread every harness on your loom? I was confused in this video because she only threads 3 out of 4 of her harnesses (or at least that's what it looks like to me). Thank you so much!
This is the best video I've seen so far. Thank you so much. I can't wait to try this on my next weaving project.
Thank you so much. This is the best video on warping. Your explanation was excellent! I’m new to weaving only been involved for 3 yrs. I have a new loom like this one in the video. I’m so glad to find one. It was very helpful.
I love the metal ring tip for the lease sticks. thank you
Such a great video. Very clear explanation. Thank you for making this so clear.
Thank you so many times over Barbara for this video. I have inherited a Cranbrook which is much more of beast than I've ever used, this has been so helpful!
I love this video. So helpful. I literally stop and start it as I warp my loom. Hopefully someday I won't need to reference it because it will be second nature but, for now, I appreciate this video!
I really appreciate this video! It makes it super easy and it really shows everything step-by-step.
What a great walk through on the warping process.
Thanks for this video. I'm about to dress my loom which I cut the fabric off of and was glad to find your video. You are so accurate!
Thanks so much! This video helped me get my first Leclerc Nilus loom up and running! :)
You made that look so simple compared to front to back. I will do that on my next project.
This is a must watch every single time I warp my loom until it becomes second nature.
Thank you very much for your videos!!
Thanks very much for this video. I have never warped a loom before and was trying to figure it out in my head... I would have done it ALL wrong!
thank you!!! thank you!!! I'm no longer afraid to do this!!!!!
כל כך יפה הסברת אחד על אחד .מורה מצוינת.
תודה רבה.
Thank you -- you are wonderful!
Thank you. I really needed to see how to do this on the Baby Wolf!
This is the best video out there for dressing your loom! Thank you so much!
i have just found this channel on my for you page of my youtube and i have found this to be a wonderful non complex tutorial .. very clear and understandable, is this only for a floor standing loom or can it be applied to one of the table top ridgid heddle looms too... I've asked my husband for one as i want a new hobby and weaving seems to have hit my taste buds just of late, and i am looking for an uncomplicated tutorial on how to weave as im more of a "monkey see, monkey do" do'er than a reader do'er
Thank you . I follow your directions step by step .
Great video, informative and to the point.
LOVED this !! perfect, and well done. THANK YOU :)
thank you! this is so helpful!!
I do one complete turn of the warp beam crank with minimal tension. Then I go around to the front of the warp and "thumb down" the warp, adding tension in small sections.
What an awesome video. I have never seen a video like this. I didn't know you'd remove the rattle at this point. I thought it was like a sectional beam that would stay on for the whole time the warp was on the loom. Interesting.
fantastic!!! Video is so informative!
Thank you! very helpful and clear. Appreciate the tips too.
Makes since. Now I want floor loom with a few reeds lol
Thank you for this clear instructional! Is there also a printed version of the warping instructions?
She made this look so easy! Thank you! Is a raddle absolutely necessary....my loom doesn't have one.
Thank
Some people use paper when winding the warp, some use sticks. I use the slats out of a 2 inch mini blind I found on clearance at Lowe's :)
this is so smart!
wonderful videos!! thanks a lot for your help
This is a great video. Do you have a video on winding a warp? I would like to learn how to set up the counting string.
Great video! Would you be able to tell me how the treadles are laced up for this advancing twill pattern? Thank you!
The raddle is on the back beam. The warp goes over the raddle, and down to the warp beam where it is wound onto the beam. At no time is the raddle near the paper. The back beam and the warp beam are not the same. Take another look at the video and let us know if you're still confused.
Trying to setup a Leclerc Fanny loom. It is an older model and trying to get the treadles setup properly and have the frames move properly as I treadle. It does not seem like it is working properly. I have everything hanging properly and the frames set one frame to one treadle. Not sure if I need to have more than one frame per treadle. Is there a video on how to set up the treadles for a 4 frame counterbalance. I believe the loom is like a 26" wide loom.
Do you have to go through all this work every time you do a project?
thank you for sharing!
Thank you for the reply. I got it figured out. Could you do a video on common warping errors?
Common warping errors.1. Skipping dents in the reed. 2. Misthreading heddles, ie draft says; 1234 and you thread 1224 and miss heddle 3. 3. Forgetting to use color coding when tieing the cross so that, up is down and down is up and you get a twist in the warp. 4. Not paying close attention to your threading cross. It must be pristine! 6. Miscounting how many warp threads you are supposed to have. 7. Not counting out your heddles or missing a few. 8. Crossing warp threads when bringing them thru the heddles (see number 2) 9. Going too fast when warping. Take your time and GO SLOW.
I would really like an answer to this question. If you use a raddle cross instead of a counting thread, how would you get the warp onto the raddle? I have yet to figure this out.
Is there a floating selvage on both sides?
Hi @AlpacaJo. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a video the describes how to use a sectional warping beam.
Im new to floor loom weaving, I've been using a rigid loom. May I ask why you put one and then two threads in reed? I would think you just put one in each reed? Thanks, shannon
I'm only a beginner, but from what I've read, that depends on the total ends per inch that you want the final piece to be. If your reed is eight dents per inch but your final piece is 12 ends per inch, for example, you need to double up here and there. So you don't *always* have to double up, like if your reed is 10 dpi and your piece is also 10 epi, you wouldn't. But like if your reed is 15 dpi and your final piece is 30 epi, you would double throughout. In some cases you might even put three ends in each dent, if it were needed. Hope that makes sense.
The floating selvages are on both ends. They go through the reed, but not through a heddle.
Good reader digest version of dressing a loom
Thank you so much for this video. I'm wondering- are you tensioning the warp when you are rolling on?
Thank you for this thorough explanation. I am slightly confused by the 1-2 sleighing pattern. She never explained why it isn’t one thread per reed slot. Could you clarify, please?
I believe the pattern she is using calls for that type of threading. I have yet to encounter a pattern that states that type of threading thru the reed, only single per slot.
Thank you for this video - it is wonderful!
Is there a reason you only threaded heddles on three of the harnesses and not all four? Was that for a particular pattern or something? Thanks!
Hannah, which shafts (harnesses) are threaded is determined by the draft you are using. In our video, Barbara is threading all 4 shafts, but it's not always easy to see all four because they are close together and the camera is focusing on her hands.
Are you threading back to front is it 4321 all the way across vicky
How do you remove the rattle? I thought it was buried under the paper.
that is we call 2-1, 2-1 in the reed. i tried 2-1-1 the result is not good.
nice
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Have a look at the Laura Fry method of threading and give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
what determine inch units?
+Elisabeta Pieleanu, the sett (ends per inch) is determined by the yarn and the weave structure. The yarns we sell at WEBS have a suggested sett range--the lower number (least dense) is for plain weave and the upper end is for twills. You can see the suggested sett range when looking at the details of a weaving yarn on our website.
Confused she said she treaded 1 treadle on 3 heddles then said 4
how to know the inch units?
Search for a Warp and Weft Calculator on google. Should help with the calculations in inches.
This is difficult for a first time weaver. I think I will contact my teacher..
