What an absolutely pleasant experience that was. I have warped for years but never realized how gentle that action can be. You made my spirit rest with your unhurried and totally informative demonstration. Thank you for being so gentle and easy to follow and see. I will look for more of your videos and anticipate them eagerly. How soothing!!!!! wow.... balm to a bruised spirit.... God is good.

[@maryannkennedy1579]

EXCELLENT video. Thank you for speaking slowly and clearly. Also thanks for not having the music in the background so loud I can't understand you... I hope I find many more of your videos... Thank you again... I wish you were my neighbor...

[@tinacruzart]

Thank you for this video guide! I refer to it every time I go to the warping board. Happy Weaving! :)

Mrs. Elkins, thank you for this video. It is the only video that makes sense to me on the subject.

I think I like your process because it seems to guard against common problems. I can't wait to try it. I'll watch again to be sure what I'm doing. Thanks for this video!

A new weaver here. Clever idea to 'hide' the knot at he back of the loom.

Thank you for the very clear instructions. As a newbie I appreciate the tip about putting the knots towards the end of the warp, hadn't thought about that.

The most beginner-friendly warping video ever -- thank you Barbara! Will there be a Part 2 on how to get this warp on a loom and ready to weave? Please I hope?

[@patriciaclough3984]

[@arvizuana5984]

Muchísimas gracias por su explicación, es perfecta!!!!!

[@ritamclaughlin9681]

Thank you Barbara! You give a wonderful, clear presentation of how to wind a warp!! I have also been watching your Dressing the loom video. are there anymore teaching videos in this series? Rita

[@tamiraelhiba2576]

fabulious .thank you madame

[@syncope88]

This was so so helpful, thank you!!

[@moslop]

Thank you, that was a very instructive and useful video 😊

[@onegreenev]

Did my first warp on my board today before looking at your video. Mine is 10 per inch and I have 13. I was going for 14 but did not have enough. This is a test of my skills for warping and weaving. I have a small table loom and it's not very wide and only two frames for simple weaving. I started my warp on the opposing end of cross. My cross was done around just two pegs and you have your end around three. I think mine will work but I just don't have a large opening but plenty for setting up. Anyway, thank you for the video and instruction. Now to take it off my warp board.

[@sharilinfischberg1339]

Really helpful

[@richardschaffling9882]

Great video thanks

[@diensthunds]

We aren't making a bed in the Army. Comical! I loved it.

[@lindaworachek5905]

Thank you so much!

[@Lee7699]

Thank you! This video was very informative! Too bad I didn't see it before I purchased my warping board. I have one of those "knuckle-knocker" warping boards with the pegs too close together!🙄

[@websyarn]

@basilrose If you like this video, you'll love our How to Warp a Loom from back to front video. It's the next video you're looking for. ➤ kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5TakHhmp62MeNk

[@DianeDriver1]

This helped me so much! Thanks.

[@candacekimball9366]

Thanks Diane it is informative.have a wonderful education tomorrow ….Spinning, fiber, 2 or 3 days ?👍

[@sharonbowns9196]

Excellent directions. But, what if I’m warping 3 1/2 yards? I understand whole yards but do I have to round everything to the whole yard?

[@myrany8407]

I hang my warping board from over the door wreath hangers stuck on a door. LOL

[@rosemaryschaub7219]

Can a warping board be glided together instead of scred?

[@grayautumnday]

The command hooks in the video are cracked - looks like the expensive jumbo ones they’re using are still not big enough. The Jumbo Command clothing hang knobs (no hook) might work instead.

[@karenbutton5271]

Are you doing a 12 dent reed? Is that why you're doing 12 count?

[@loriezerbe1708]

I did not see how you tied off the warp thread when you are done and ready to tie up the warp. Do you tie the end to the sister thread in the 'junk area of the warp?

[@barbaraelkins1516]

I end as I began with a loop and an overhand knot. then I catch the loop on the end peg of the warp.

[@websyarn]

You end the warp as you began, with a loop and an overhand knot. Put the loop on the last peg of the warp and it will be secure. Remember to keep the tension the same as you've had on the whole warp. We hope that helps! Let us know if you need any further help with this!

[@colettelandeen2182]

This video was great, but I discovered too late that this technique is for front to back warping on the loom. Can I use my warp to warp back to front? Can I move the cross?

[@mikemckenna861]

Heddles

[@websyarn]

Hi Colette, check out this video to see if it answers your question: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5TakHhmp62MeNk If not, please let us know and we'll get back to you with an answer! :)
