How to Put a Pre-Wound Warp on a Rigid Heddle Loom for Weaving - Buy a Warp or Wind Your Own!

[@carrietreder8474]

There’s something about fancy warping that my brain can’t wrap around, but I always watch because it’s so nice to hang out with you. ❤

[@AmyMcScience]

"I did not mean to dress to match my warp, but here we are" I almost spit out my coffee 😂

[@angief.9612]

I've been too scared to learn how to weave, you make it look way more approachable and those scarves are so inspiringly pretty! Wow!

[@avrilp317]

Absolutely love all of the scarves, they are so beautiful. Thanks for showing how a pre-made warp can be put onto a RHL. I’m sure that this will come in useful. Love your videos and your enthusiasm 😊

[@hollynoscar3534]

dang, i too have been searching for how to do this and found nothing until your video came up on my feed today!!!!! thank you for showing us the process.

[@abirhussein9781]

It was me Trish 😊 I was weaving towels and struggled with the warp.

[@scriptgoddess]

22:00. one of the benefits of lees sticks is that they provide some extra tensioning that I appreciate as a single warper. I like your system. Funny how my brain works a bit differently, and I can see how I'd adjust your system to suit. Gonna have to try it out!! Thanks!

[@tracybarger7822]

Watching you warp a loom still makes my head spin. 😵‍💫 But I love the fabric you have made 😍

[@spunknit7851]

You make it look easier than I thought it would be. You're giving me the courage to try this myself!

[@candygrubisic]

All 3 turned out really pretty. I like the short fringe. I've been trying to find ways to use my hand-spun too...and then of course...we all keep making more LOL.

[@holly3442]

I love your weaving videos. I have a Fanny at home and I have had the same warp on it since last April. It took me days to warp it and I had been given wrong information so I need to redo it and I am scared of the headache and that all my work was for nothing 😢 but your videos inspire me, so much so that I had bought this loom to begin with. As always, thank you Trish!

[@rockinrobin1975]

Beautiful scarves! Thanks for showing us how you did the warp. Your weavings are always so gorgeous!

[@deirdrez9]

The scarves are gorgeous ❤ the set up for weaving looks so complicated but the finished items are beautiful 😍

[@tracyirwin9578]

Trish, I literally just attempted my first pre-wound warp the weekend before this video came out 😂 I found The Woolery had a great instruction video. I took a break from fiber art for a spell so catching up on your videos and love your craft room and how giant your stash is ❤

[@WoWCathy98]

Thank you for this video Trish, I told my husband I need him to make me a warping mill so I can try making a pre-wound warp for my knitters loom ☺I too have hand spun yarn calling me to make it into fabric 🥰

[@peterivkovich2314]

from Gerry- I have never done anything but a direct warp. This didn't seem too complicated. Thanks for sharing. Be blessed.

[@Lilfare]

I love those colors. I definitely lean towards the Evil Unicorn and the last one but all of them are so pretty. The scarves look so comfy.

[@ritaorr766]

Your shirt is darker than the warp. I always get a smile when your humor kicks in. Beautiful job!❤

[@SBVancouver]

You do a great job explaining how to indirect warp. I struggle for space without someone trying to walk into my warp without looking.🤦🏻‍♀️And you’ve given me ideas to use up my one off test spins

[@marthahoneycutt3692]

This is exactly what I've been wanting to learn. Thank you Trish

[@scriptgoddess]

ooo. the tip on tying to prevent unchaining! thank you!!

[@tracybird4547]

I’m really glad that you’re doing okay. Sending love your way❤

[@marinamartinez6886]

Thanks for the great tutorial. It's been a while since you've shown us some weaving on the Rigid Heddle. Maybe John can invent a brake mechanism for the Swift, seems awkward to chain the warp while it's moving. 😊👍👍👍

[@pamelamatt1441]

I love looking at all of your yarn and fiber in the background 😀

[@KathleenLockhart-ry7sd]

Yes, please do a video on using a warping mill.

[@kimlyne9700]

When I did indirect I cut the loops as threaded the holes and slots at the beginning and tied on to the warping beam rod. Your way is easier! 🤣

[@juneoeserserio2314]

Great to see you enjoying your loom!!!

[@jennifernicole816]

I’m just learning to weave! So much fun!

[@hawthorngrove3629]

The scarves are fabulous and thanks for the tutorial

[@pennyp.3516]

thank you thank you thank you! your video and method has helped me immensely in avoiding crossed threads while indirect warping for double heddles :) I had seen lease sticks in action on floor loom videos, and thought what if? but never got further - thank you for the initiative to try it and share it!

[@MsGg43]

The scarves are beautiful and you made warping a loom look so easy!

[@QueenAnneKnitsandSews]

I used to have a 4-harness jack loom. My dad built it in solid maple. It was beautiful. I wove on it a couple of times and it stressed me out so much that I never did it again. As I am watching you I assumed I would want to try again, but no. I'm happy for you and others that love to weave. It fills me with so much anxiety just thinking about messing up the warp, messing up my pattern, breaking threads, etc. I can live vicariously through you!

[@QueenAnneKnitsandSews]

Okay, so maybe you've inspired me to want to weave scarves from my handspun. 🤗

[@calliecothran7808]

Thank you for posting this! I haven't weaved as much as I would like to because I hate direct warping. So, I've been wanting to try this.

[@teacat55]

This is a GREAT Project and demo…thank you for taking time to do this so clearly. When it comes to supporting the floating lease sticks through the warping process, I have taken long skinny ‘bungee’ cords and those spring tension plastic things we get on hoodies and run them like you did through the reed. I had to do this figuring it out with the Saori loom. You have such a way of making these things look easy. And fun. Is that a 3D swift!? Such stunning scarves…. Most excellent.

[@jenniferkelly5342]

I just filled my table up pulling stuff out of my craft cupboards!!!😂

[@stephanieking1645]

Is is such a helpful video, thank you Trish! Love the colors of all three scarfs, they are beautiful!

[@xkwisitlady]

Really beautiful scarves! I need to start looking for neutral yarns to add to my stash because I love this idea to use up all the colorful handspun I've been making.

[@jackiewest1449]

Thank you so much! Absolutely unbelievably helpful. I've needed this for quite a while ❤

[@Moonchildcreates]

Not me body doubling and spinning fiber while you talk me into a whole other hobby 😂😂😂

[@FiberLoveDiary]

Aww, so happy to keep you company while you spin. I mean I did use up three hanks of handspun in 2 days this way 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@LDSVenus]

Beautiful scarves, I wouldn’t have the patience for setting the weave up, I would enjoy the shuttle work ;p

[@wycohibito]

Beautiful! In my dream house, I have room for a loom and all that.

[@avalontampsett5023]

Thank you for showing me. I have seen some of warp threads on a website over here in the uk. Now I know how it works.

[@teresac.m.355]

You do such a great job at explaining each step so clearly.

[@tinalamberts4947]

Thank you for this!!! I do not have the space to do a direct warp. I just could not translate instructions for using this type of prepared warp on a floor loom to how I would do it on my simple Northfield rigid heddle table loom. Now I see!!!! I will try it tomorrow!

[@michelleatwell8580]

I just got a loom for Christmas and haven’t tried it yet. Very excited to try some new techniques!

[@keturahspencer]

I think the woolery probably has the best video on putting a pre-made warp on a rigid heddle loom.

[@FiberLoveDiary]

They have some great videos. I wonder why I couldn't find it 🤔

[@kenisonh]

Love this Thank you. Stay warm and safe.

[@territhompsonarts]

I'm interested in seeing a demonstration about using the warping mill. It looks a lot more comfortable to use than the warping board. I have had back problems.

[@marthahoneycutt3692]

Thank you trish. Actually I just bought a warping board and I am totally a newbie on this so I would like to see you do a warp on the warping board and the hell at the same I don't know if I said this right but that's what I'm wanting thank you trish. The scarves are beautiful!

[@netanyadavis2841]

I think I need a loom now .

[@LeighaNBRT]

I'm definitely not in a stage of life for weaving, but someday I will be!

[@sylvanwoods5271]

So gorgeous! ❤

[@elysianfibres1642]

Hi Trish, I love those scarfs! I was wondering if you could do a video on how to use a warping mill. I bought one but I've never used it because I don't know how! Thanks! I love your videos :)

[@QuzieSuzieQ]

Thanks for this video! I really need to get back to using my loom again. I think I was too ambitious with my first warp and I need to just get back to it.

[@RoxanneRichardson]

"That was so easy!" hahahahaha ;-)

[@beckyshook3526]

I don't have a rigid heddle loom but have a floor loom this isn't my idea but I use it you get those cheap curtain rod that bends on each end then I hook one end over the front and other end over the back one for each side I made sure to get the longest it adjusts then I put the lease sticks over this and it is supported while I thread the Reed.

[@jackiemcdonald736]

I have got to try this!

[@CheapEngineerCrafts]

Gorgeous!

[@CarrieMtn]

This was a lot of fun. Thanks

[@MamamanaDoDo]

"I did not mean to dress to match my warp but here we are." 🤣

[@kellywest2820]

They look great! I love my table loom. Ashford 8 shaft, 32”-34”? (I forget). Wish I had a floor loom, just not enough space.

[@lisaml7411]

Thanks for videoing this!

[@anajulian1002]

I am trying to find instructions from you about putting the warp without crossing the threads. I remember i saw you pointing it out. Where can i find it? Thank you in advance

[@mary-annelennon7719]

The woolery has a KZbin video on how to do this also

[@GirlScoutLoriC]

I love this video! It is so helpful to see this method as I don’t have a good space to direct warp right now, but I can set up warping pegs along the sides of my dining room table for a makeshift warping board. Question…can you add the details of your weft yarn to the video description (if you still it, the yarn weight and yards in your skeins?)

[@S.RMarigold]

Great information.

[@kimberlytheodore5690]

😳 amazing! ❤❤❤love

[@jennysterner696]

Love your video!

[@sherylm2442]

I loved your tutorial and the scarves were very pretty in the handspun. I am curious though as to why you decided to tie this warp on to your apron rod when in the past I always see you lash them on. Was there something about the wool that dictated that, or it was just what you were feeling that day? Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us.

[@lynebriere2709]

Thanking you so much....I tried yesterday and it is a real mess. I lost control of the crosses and now I really don't know what to do. I think I will take everything off the loom and restart again doing same thing as you. Hoping for the best!

[@lynebriere2709]

Well, I took everything off the loom and restart as you did, and it seems to work pretty Well. I'll begin weaving my future kitchen curtains....hoping that the tension will be ok since I was alone to roll on the back beem. Thanking you for sharing how to work!

[@hollaceannstruve9805]

What yarn did you use for your warp? What size/dent heddle? Thanks for the beautiful inspiration ❤

[@rebeccaneef6070]

Great video! Love that warping mill. Did I miss the part where you said what brand/model it is? Couldn't find that. Info, please? I need one!

[@FiberLoveDiary]

My warping mil is an Ashford

[@rebeccaneef6070]

@@FiberLoveDiary , thanks so much. It looks just the right size for me!

[@erikagreenwell9892]

i works like a whole video on this to learn. what do you think of building a warp winding with with pegs on a wall? i have a shed with huge walls...

[@jackiebrown7859]

If I were to attempt this wind something would slip, all the yarn would fall to the floor, and I would be lying on top of my giant yarn pile sobbing in the floor contemplating why I exist🤣

[@FiberLoveDiary]

What?? It was easy really! Especially if you don't have to wind the warp yourself.

[@jackiebrown7859]

It does look really simple, but when it looks that easy, im the gal to cause a disaster😂

[@natalielambert703]

I don’t weave but Trish makes everything look easy-

[@lisaml7411]

Warping is what holds me back from weaving. I know that once I get it done the weaving will go so fast…

[@katlynkoester]

I have a warp that a friend gave me, but other than knowing it is wool, I have no information about it.

[@beckyshook3526]

I should say this rod goes on outside the Reed

[@marcovazquez5520]

lol I can see your toes

[@johnsterner221]

Love your video!
