I really enjoyed watching you do a diary piece and really inspires me to play more with yarn and possibilities

[@kzookid2051]

I love yarn with some varigation in the color like this. Looks great.

[@sharonmurrell9291]

WOW, this Is amazing. Taking a look at tapestry weaving!! So magical!!!

[@FiddleKate]

Thank you so much for this inspiring video! I love seeing your little weavings and learn something from each video!!! Beautifully done!

[@yogiknitgirl]

Your videos are always so welcoming and informative! Makes me want to run to the studio and weave, weave, weave!!!!!

[@Kelly3814]

Thank you, Rebecca! I love your videos and classes.

[@katherinelamb614]

Love the yarn

[@1aliveandwell]

Thank you for this vid, have been trying to get self to weave more often but realized is pain in neck from frame loom. WIll find way to set upright. WOnder if can use fishing clips (look like safety pins), to connect holding warp to actual warp, or would be too crowded if close epi.

[@lindsaygallagher1607]

This is fascinating and you are so good at explaining your methods. What is fly line backing?

[@RebeccaMezoffTapestry]

Fly line backing is a woven string that is used by fly fisherpeople. It works well for the supplemental warp for Fringeless four-selvedge warping because it is woven and not twisted. But other twine or warp can be used.

[@sallyschnitzius2660]

Where do you buy that warping string that has loops in it? I've never seen warping string like that. Thanks.

[@RebeccaMezoffTapestry]

This is four selvedge warping. Like this: rebeccamezoff.com/fringeless

[@karinvaleri7130]

thx!!!how many epi were u working on?

[@RebeccaMezoffTapestry]

Pretty sure this was 8 epi but I'm guessing because of the yarn. Weft has to match warp sett (I have blog posts about this) and this yarn works great at one strand and 8 epi. rebeccamezoff.com/blog/2018/3/28/sett-recap

What is fly line backing

[@RebeccaMezoffTapestry]

It is a woven kind of thread that fly fishermen use (you find it online or at a fly fishing store--get 20#). I like it for the supplemental warp in four selvedge tapestries because it is woven and not twisted. But regular warp works too.

Fly line ?

[@tallerdeluz]

Hello, Rebecca, I'm Luz, translator and crafter. I love knitting, embroidering and weaving, this last I started recently. I like your job a lot. Just have a small doubt, what do you call "selvedge"? I had never heard that word before... and couldn't find in my big dictionary nor on the online Lexico-Oxford (only found selvage and salvage). Maybe I think you mean "selv-edge", that is, no fringe? f you could explain it, I'd thank you a lot.

[@RebeccaMezoffTapestry]

It is also spelled selvage. Selvedge is the European spelling, selvage is often used elsewhere in English. It is the edge of the piece--not the fringe end, the sides.

[@tallerdeluz]

@@RebeccaMezoffTapestry Thank you so much!

[@stephaniekowals5154]

what are you using for warp?

[@RebeccaMezoffTapestry]

Cotton seine twine. Almost always. I like the stuff Bockens sells (Glimakra USA supplies it in the USA)

[@stephaniekowals5154]

@@RebeccaMezoffTapestry do you do a row of twining before starting with the regular weaving?

[@RebeccaMezoffTapestry]

@@stephaniekowals5154 This tapestry is four selvedge so I don't do any of that of course, but sometimes I use twining. Depends on the header I'm using. I talk about headers on small looms extensively in my Weaving Tapestry on Little Looms class and also address it in my other beginning classes (Introduction to Tapestry Weaving and Warp and Weft) In this tapestry, no twining at all because it is Fringeless four-selvedge technique.

[@stephaniekowals5154]

Thank you. I’m not all the way through your book, but couldn’t wait to try something
