Do you have a video on hemming the other end
@glynisweavesАй бұрын
the process is exactly the same Leanne - you just bring the needle across at the back and down so that it anchors onto the the weaving, instead of taking the needle across and up where there is nothing for it to anchor into.
@hiyacynthiaАй бұрын
Lovely video thank you. I heard elsewhere that people put monofilament fishing line at the selvage to keep it straight and take it out at the end of weaving ? For myself I’m wondering how to use a wiggly selvage to good effect in more artistic efforts.

Hello, I have been crocheting for over 55+ years , I am now 64 year old and would love to learn how to weave, I have been searching for someone like you that shows and explains everything there is to know about weaving on a Rigit Heddle loom. I will be registering and taking your online class as soon as I can get a loom. May I ask you please, what loom is it you are using?
@glynisweaves2 ай бұрын
Hi Sandra - so pleased that you find my information useful. I use the Ashford Knitters Looms. They come in three sizes - 30cm, 50cm and 70cm, with the 70cm being the most useful because of the extra width. I love these looms becaus ethey are so light and portable and comfortable to use.

@sandrabenesch2816 the Knitters loom is the model that folds up - highly portable and easy to store - also much lighter than the standard RH

You're so right about not focusing too much on them. I've often found that after washing and finishing a woven piece the selvedges sort of right themselves, so they don't look as bad as when it's straight off the loom.
@glynisweaves3 ай бұрын
Personally I find that we obsess too much about our selvedges. We are not machines - we're human and we're allowed some imperfections - we need to learn to embrace these imperfections! Not saying this as an excuse for bad workmanship mind you .......he-he!
@deweygraham24325 ай бұрын
Thank you for showing us how to get even selvedges. I like how you put pressure on the warp thread at the folded over end and then give the weft yarn on the other end a gentle tug to seat the edge. I am definitely going to give this a try tomorrow morning. I think this will speed up my weaving considerably. I won't have to fiddle around with the weft so much. I get so excited when I learn a new technique that solves my problem areas! I am definitely going to subscribe to your channel.

I thought I understood this method well, but you gave a aha moment when you tied the lefthand string and then started to fiddle with the tension. I usually pulled from right to left until there was no more give in the string and the warp too tight. Thank you very much.🎉🎉
