I'm so glad you found it helpful. You were smart (in my opinion) to start off with 8-shaft loom. I started with a rigid heddle loom and quickly realized it was too limiting. Them I went to a 4-shaft table loom and outgrew that in about a year. An 8-shaft loom has enough shafts that you can weave a variety of structures. I hope you enjoy your journey into weaving. Thanks for watching and Happy Weaving.

@tangledwebsweaving 12 күн бұрын
Thank you so much. I found using a temple really helps with the uneven selvedges. Also, since the tabby has more interlacements than the overshot, make sure you don't pull too much on the tabby weft between the overshot picks, leaving a generous angle before beating. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😊

Thanks so much for your reply to my tabby/warp question. When I made these towels the first time my tabby showed too much. I was having trouble keeping the beat (ppi) tight enough. Probably I need to solve that problem rather than change the pattern. :) I’ll keep watching your videos! Thanks.
@tangledwebsweaving
@tangledwebsweaving 13 күн бұрын
Yes, a tight beat is definitely important for keeping the tabby from showing too much on these towels. It's a lot of work, but I found the tabby is less noticeable once the towels are washed a few times. Keep experimenting, and let me know if you have any more questions. ❤️

My floor jack is always getting shoved across the room when I beat harder. Our current space doesn't allow it, but where we were before, I had turned it do my back was too the wall. Two 2x4 boards cut to length acted as brakes by being placed between the wall and the loom. I had padding at either end to prevent wear and tear on walls and loom. It stopped the travelling. I have heard of looms being bolted to the floor, or a short piece of wood screwed to the floor to prevent travelling.

I've read about bolting the loom down and also bracing against the wall. Sounds like the bracing worked for you. Maybe I can set mine up that way the next time I weave a rug and really have to beat hard and add weight to my beater. Thanks for the suggestion and Happy Weaving ❤️

Perhaps try putting rubber padding under the base/footing of the loom. That might help if you don't have many allowable options.

Thanks for sharing! I just built a rigid heddle loom and my first project was an exercise in pain as I wholeheartedly made every mistake. I'll be threading up my next project using your technique which I'm looking forward to employing. On a side tangent, how often do you encounter static-y yarns? I've watched a few videos of yours and you've mentioned it as a frustration before. If the answer is a lot and you got roughly fifty dollars burning a hole in your pocket, anti-static fans are a thing. They're used in electronics fabrication where electro static discharge is a costly enough problem that there is a healthy market of commodity solutions to mitigate it. Search for Anti-static Ionizing ESD Fan... or any combination there of. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the results. <3s!

@tangledwebsweaving
@tangledwebsweaving 18 күн бұрын
Sorry it's taken so long to get back with you on this question. The length is really dependent on how high your lamms are from the treadles. For my loom I used 2 lengths. For the lower lamms they are about 16" long; the upper lamms are 21" long. I leave enough hanging under the treadle so I can easily grab it and adjust the height of the treadle. Hope that helps.

I really like iWeaveit but haven't been able to justify spending the money for the Mac version when I have a perfectly good program that works on my PC.
