Mohair Cinch Making Part 3-Warping

[@BarbSheehan]

YOU ARE GREAT!!! Thank you for making this video.

Glad it was helpful!

[@connies9907]

First I want to say I love your videos on Cinch making. They are very easy to follow. I do have one question, why is one end 3' feet longer? Thanks

[@carolinespurgeon6016]

Because it has to stretch between the buckles one more time than the other end. That makes it an odd number of warps.

[@connies9907]

@@carolinespurgeon6016 Thank you for explaining. Any chance you will do a video using 2 colors on a cinch?

[@carolinespurgeon6016]

Do you mean two colors of the warp. If so I haven’t done one because Rebecca at UBraidIt has a good one. You can pick it up on KZbin. Look for UBraidIt channel.

Is there a difference of the way you start a 17 strand versus a 19 strand cinch.

[@carolinespurgeon6016]

They are both woven the same way. Only try to find a wider buckle for the 19 strand. Sometimes you can find a 3 1/2" buckle if you search!

[@rushedequestrian5950]

how would you work the knots for an english girth with the four buckles ?

[@carolinespurgeon6016]

Hummmm. You would need multiple hooks to secure the buckles. Then you would need to divide the warps between the two. Since there’s an odd number of warps I’m not entirely sure how to do that. I’m afraid that I don’t know anyone who does English style girths. It would have to be something that I’d have to experiment with.

How much warp did you use for this 16 inch cinch please?

[@carolinespurgeon6016]

You need approx. 47' for a 32" cinch so for the 16" you would need approx. half that amount or 24". Keep in mind all measurements are estimates.

@@carolinespurgeon6016 thank you

[@cameronland4009]

How much do u measure out of mohair for like a 26 inch

[@carolinespurgeon6016]

Hummmmm...Probably about 39'. That's end of buckle to end of buckle = 26". You need 47' for a 32" cinch. Of course, the amount varies from person to person depending on how tight you warp it up. I like to error on the long side as you can't piece on another piece.

[@carolinespurgeon6016]

PS. I always keep a notebook of measurements so I can adjust it next time if it is too long or too short.

Do you measure between the buckles for a 32 inch cinch?
