I am now using three colors clasp weft diamond, all thanks to you. Bless you.

[@KellyCasanova]

That's great! 😁

[@freddietreehugger8144]

Ok, this is making a lot more sense now! I have watched this about 15 times to get the technique really well in my head. I think I understand it much better, thanks to you! Bless you for all you do to share your weaving.

[@knackfulknitter]

Yes, I am very surprised at how easy this looks! Thank you, Kelly!

[@ederfamily831]

Thank you so much, several years ago I was trying to create a simple tapestry floor rug and this would have helped so much

[@angelakm6753]

Lovely, thanks Kelly

[@MJ-jf8nd]

Wonderful video. Much easier than I thought. I can’t wait to see the next one. I love watching you weave. I am a new weaver and visual learner, you are very easy to follow. Thank you.

[@KellyCasanova]

Great! Thanks for watching!

[@melindaross8541]

Thank you!!!

[@karinvaleri7130]

Thankyou for making this technique easy to understand!

[@KellyCasanova]

You're most welcome!

[@vickilauritsen2983]

Fabulous tutorial. I am new to weaving and you have explained so much in a clear and concise way in the videos I have watched so far. Many thanks. AND you are an Aussie....yahhhhh

[@KellyCasanova]

Thanks Vicki 😊

[@MyCreativeGarageByVK]

Great tutorial! Looking forward to trying this. Thanks for sharing. Vanessa 😊💗

[@KellyCasanova]

You're welcome!

[@suedaines101]

That is so clever! Thank you.

[@KellyCasanova]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@rkenn100]

Love this video! Thank you for all the content you share for free--it's incredible! I plan to tackle a clasped weft scarf today for the first time and your video explains it so clearly!

[@KellyCasanova]

You're so welcome and I really appreciate you taking the time to say thanks 😊

[@roulazoupanioti]

very helpful Kelly!! thank you very much !! 💖

[@KellyCasanova]

You're very welcome!

[@teethnclaws]

I'm new to weaving (using both a frame and a RH loom). I was inspired by the effect clasped weaving has on the overall work, seeing countless fiber artists on IG showing off their projects incorporated on bags and pillows. Just gorgeous. Thank you for sharing! This will be extremely helpful for someone like me who is completely new.

[@KellyCasanova]

You're most welcome! I agree, it is a very inspiring technique. Check out Hellskitch on Insta if you haven't already, I love her work 😉

[@teethnclaws]

@@KellyCasanova I do follow Hellskitch. She IS very talented. Love her work. She was the one who recommended I get the Cricket RH :)

[@Cyndance]

Thank you!

[@KellyCasanova]

You're welcome!

[@rubberpopcorn246]

I love all of your videos! They are clear, logical, and approachable. I am planning to buy a rigid heddle loom soon and I am excited by your various techniques and ideas. The patterns seem complicated but the process is surprisingly easy once you see how to do it. Thank you so much, and God bless!

[@KellyCasanova]

Thank you David, I'm glad the videos are helpful to you. You're right, the process is not hard once you understand what you're doing 😊

[@gemmaluescher-verseckas1243]

In Switzerland the big name brand is Lang. ( from a village not too far from Me,

[@rainbowgal8047]

So very helpful. I can finally move forward with the piece I'm making. Thank you always, Kelly. Your gift for teaching is much appreciated, along with your very generous gift-giving nature. Thanks for all you share.

[@KellyCasanova]

Thank you, I appreciate your kind words very much ❤

[@kimlyne9700]

I don’t have a loom (yet!) but I keep watching KZbin videos just to see if it is something I would like. Your videos are so great! I am glad you mentioned Bendigo Woolen Mills, I will be visiting Melbourne and Bendigo with my family and June and I was planning on going to the mills store to get some yarn. Any other great yarn places to visit Down Under?

[@KellyCasanova]

I have a suppliers list here if that helps - kellycasanovaweavinglessons.com/weaving-suppliers-lis/ There is also Unwind in Melbourne - www.unwindcraftcafe.com.au And Wool Baa www.woolbaa.com.au There are other little shops that I've probably missed, but I buy all of my weaving supplies online, so don't visit yarn shops much.

[@karinvaleri7130]

😊🙏

[@marianedwards5077]

Thanks going to give this a bash.

[@KellyCasanova]

Good luck, it's lots of fun!

[@Tadi3a]

Brilliant. Love the yarn, as well. Can you by it in the US?

[@KellyCasanova]

I don't think you can, I think they mostly just supply to Australia.

[@lizgamelin]

Your videos are always so clear and easy to follow. I want to try this method using 8/2 cotton to make some napkins. Will the thinner yarn make it harder to do this pattern?

[@KellyCasanova]

Interesting question! I have only done clasped WARP with 8/2 sized yarn (bamboo and tencel) and it looks awesome - haven't used a thinner yarn for clasped WEFT though. If you give it a try, I'd be most interested to know how it turns out 😉

[@lizgamelin]

I successfully made the napkins using this clasped warp method! I used 8/2 cotton for both warp and weft on a 12.5 dent heddle on an Ashford 20” Knitters loom. I wish there were a way to share a picture. Thank you for the encouragement to give this a try.

[@locolotus7716]

I love the yarns balls. So pretty. I wonder what winder she uses.

[@KellyCasanova]

I use a ball winder similar to this one - amzn.to/4bwg7hR

[@suemcdonough6586]

I am trying this pattern for the first time. I'm having an issue at the center point. A diagonal stitch shows up. Not sure how to post a picture to this page.

[@KellyCasanova]

This has happened to me too - it's about the arrangement of the threads at their meeting point, where they intersect. You may find that it only happens when you're in a certain shed. I just played around with different sheds and meeting points to smooth out the bumps.

[@talea-jaymorawitz5404]

Love you videos Kelly... Just wondering the ply for both warp n weft?

[@KellyCasanova]

Australian 8ply, light worsted/dk weight wool 😊

[@janetpinkelman2324]

Maybe you could use a stitch marker on the warp thread where you go in and out of. with the shuttle.

[@KellyCasanova]

Spoken like a true knitter, great idea! 💖

[@erikafirth972]

Kelly, does the fabric end up thicker or do the yarns sit on top of each other (as though 2 rows)?

[@KellyCasanova]

Yes, it is thicker but it's not "over the top thick". It does depend on the yarn you use too 😊

[@wjm1319]

Very cool technique. But I think I'd tie a marker string around the top bar of my heddle to indicate the entry/exit point of the middle thread. Eventually you'll run out the length of your 'tattle tail'.

[@KellyCasanova]

Great idea!

[@barbararickman8543]

How would I do a piano keyboard pattern in clasped weft pattern?

[@clrose79]

Barbara Rickman You definitely could. She does a great single color clasp weft video and that would seem perfect for a keyboard pattern

[@freddietreehugger8144]

I think for the white keys you'd need only 1 big ball of white and plenty of black yarn for the black keys. Then perhaps another color on each end for the background? Piano wood color? Not sure, but it would add some extra color to do that if you want more than black and white.

[@denawiltse6175]

Love this, but I've somehow screwed up and can't figure out how to fix it. I go to the left, under the yarn, back thru to the right, under that yarn, and come back to the center point. Put the reed up, but now when I go to place the shuttle to the left the yarn yarn covers 2 of the weft! Can you help?

[@KellyCasanova]

Just so that you know, clasped weft does cause the weft to double up - that is normal.

[@reginazayed3100]

Have you a Video about doble weaving?

[@KellyCasanova]

Yes, I actually have two - kelly-casanova-weaving-lessons.teachable.com/p/doubleweave-baby-blanket/?preview=logged_out kelly-casanova-weaving-lessons.teachable.com/p/weaving-with-two-heddles/?preview=logged_out

[@mimidee8195]

Nice .. How can i do this on a 4 shaft floor loom

[@KellyCasanova]

It's just plain weave, so you would warp for plain weave and then follow the instructions for clasping. Alternatively, you can warp your loom to weave a pattern but incorporate clasped weft into that.

[@enby_of_chaos2008]

Can it be done to weave shot silk

[@KellyCasanova]

Shot silk? 🤷‍♀️

[@Assisting2ObeybyGSC]

What size loom are you working on?

[@KellyCasanova]

Ashford 10" Sampleit 😊
