Using Fishing Swivels to Remove Twist and Reduce Loom Waste for Tablet Weaving

[@brooke_reiverrose2949]

Wish I’d found this a couple years ago when I first started out. Wasn’t sure how many threads to tie onto each swivel! This nice closeup view helps, thanks!

Glad I could help!

[@eileenfb1948]

Thank you, that was nice and clear. I will be trying this out myself.

Brilliant!

Can you show how to attach the warp to the swivels? I just can't seem to get it to work! Thanks!

[@tabletweavingintheoryandpr5238]

Absolutely! It's on the list of the next few videos I plan to make.

@@tabletweavingintheoryandpr5238 ooh, can't wait for this one! I can't find anywhere that explain which threads you attach to each swivel either!

wiccan122122 I’ve had success with using a uni knot to tie the warp, which is a knot used by some fishermen to attach their lines to their hooks. This gives me an incredibly strong anchor. I tie the threads of 1 card (4 threads altogether for me) to each swivel
