Before making any decisions about heddles, it is important to figure out how many you will use on each shaft (by checking the draft).
I am new to eight shafts and am wondering how to do tabby (plain weave) on an 8-shaft loom?
Recently, as I have been working with finer threads, I am finding my weft gets distorted, becoming like waves as I advance the warp and the fabric rolls over the breast beam. What can I do to prevent this?
The yarn is core spun with just a bit of glitz, and it is the star in this sassy woven satchel.
I’d love to make more baby blankets with fringe if there is a “fix” for the problem.
One of the best parts of working for Handwoven is getting to know and learn from Interweave founder Linda Ligon.
If you weave, you'll have times when there is fringe to finish. Often you'll want to twist it and there are some good reasons why you should..
The Structo Manufacturing Company of Freeport, Illinois, began making two-shaft metal toy looms in 1921.
