No one should even be wearing polyester. More Petro chemical trash.

What is there is no warp on the loom when folding it….somthe warp can’t be tightened after folding to stop the beater flapping around? Thanks

Thank you. Planning to pick up my drop spindle again soon. I think this is the first video I have seen where the spinner actually stood. Very helpful to demonstrate how to manage. Also like the demonstration of plying from the ball. Thank you.

Thank you ever so much for showing us newbies how to warp front to back. I have been almost paralyzed with the very thought of warping my Jane loom that I purchased used, last fall. Your explanation and demonstration was the best I have seen so far. Thank you for taking the fear out of the process! God Bless!🥰

I have a big old Union loom with two shafts and I still manage to cross one or two yarn between the reed and the heddles. I usually thread the reed and heddles at the same time. I am making Lindsey-Woolsey 22inches wide, 12 epi for a total of 264 ends of 10.5 yards long.

Thank you so much for the detail such good information. I just started with my rigid Heddle and there’s so much to learn. Just a sidenote, though what’s the name of the pattern of the sweater Susan is wearing?, that is gorgeous.

Susan said it's a lovely old acrylic sweater from a department store and she doesn't have a pattern, unfortunately. We think someone should whip up the pattern and share it!

I have used rigid heddle looms and just got a multi-shaft loom. Obviously, warping is going to be a different process and I've been watching several videos about it. This is the most straight forward instructional video I've seen yet. Thank you so much for making this available.

This is not new. This is also called pencil roving and has been around since at least the 1970's. It might not have been from sheep raised as she described but it's still the same product in the end. It's nice to see it back but it's not new.

I have two of the end-delivery shuttles I came across somewhere; I think they were thrown in for free with a used loom. They look antique to my uneducated eye, and I never thought much about it. Thank you for this video! I can see how they might offer something different than my 'standard' shuttles.

The Pirn shuttle I would think would be adding a lot of twist to the yarn as it comes off the end. Does this ever cause problems?

@YarnBarnofKansasLawrence 5 ай бұрын

Great question! Using the end feed shuttles does add or subtract a small amount of twist, depending on the direction in which you wind the pirn compared to the twist of the yarn. The amount of twist is small enough that it is unlikely to cause any trouble. I think the only time I would be concerned would be with a loosely-spun single-ply yarn. Reducing the twist further could lead to yarn that pulls apart too easily. For most plied yarns, however, you wouldn’t notice a difference. The issue isn’t confined to end feed shuttles, however. Winding a traditional bobbin from a stationary cone also adds/subtracts twist but, again, it generally doesn’t cause a problem because the amount of twist added or subtracted is small.

@myrany8407 5 ай бұрын

@@YarnBarnofKansasLawrence Ty so very much for your very detailed answer. The question came about because in Bobbin lace we work very hard to avoid adding or removing twist as we wind the bobbins so when I saw how the pirn worked it just clicked that the twist would be changed. Being relatively new to weaving I wondered if I needed to worry about it. Your answer solved that nicely for me. TY again.
